took the '90 bombardier SP out on the river after sitting for 7 years. rode it around for about 10 minutes, then a warning sound came on. so i docked it and removed the tether cord to stop the sound. pulled the seat off and smoke came out.
i believe its drawing oil and fuel correctly. although there seems to be a small leak in the oil as there's SOME oil in the bottom behind the bilge pumps. aside from that, i believe my water pump isn't functioning properly? how can i diagnose if that's the cause of smoke and the warning alarm buzzin off. not sure what else could cause the motor to overheat, well atleast i think it's over heating.
i do have the manual, and i will be cleainin the intake and impeller, but just needed to know if there was something else to be looking for.
