Title: Bowl housing warm after run today
Post by: heavytech04 on June 16, 2013, 04:52:56 PM

Hey fellas, had a good run today but noticed the lower part of my bowl housing was warm after I put the boat on the trailer.  Is this normal or do I have a bearing issue arising?  Aggressor pump.  Thanks in advance

Totally normal. When you shut off the engine it is full of hot water. As you pull up the ramp, it flows backwards through the pump, heating up the lower part of the bowl.
