1989 yamaha waveruner overheating
I recently purchased a 1989 wr500 for $250, I have gotten it running great but it does not circulate water through the engine with the pump. I have worked on many cars and tractors but am new to jet skis, I believe, correct me if I'm wrong, but the jet pump is what pumps the water to cool the engine? The ski moves plenty fast for the very short time I have ridden it so I assume the pump is working properly. Is there ant reason why the pump wouldn't also be circulating water through the engine? I tried pulling the line off the exhaust that I believe supplies cooling water to the engine and blew through it and it was clear so now I'm stuck. Any help is appreciated.
