How to flush the exhaust

[355spider]

I'm getting an overheating beep and one engine is shutting down to limp mode. I assume the coolant for exhaust is clogged. Is there an easy way to flush it out? It's an 09 230 Wake. And if I clear it out do I still need to hook upa code reader to clear the codes?

The code is recorded in memory for XXX number of engine restarts to keep track of recent engine history, the presence of the code doesn't cause limp but the occurrence of the fault does. So once the cause of the fault is addressed, the engine will no longer limp, the code will remain in memory for historical tracking purposes.

There must be something lodged in the cooling system such as sand, it may actually require some disassembly if flushing doesn't clear it out. There should be instructions in your owners manual describing the reverse flush process, owners manuals can be downloaded from several places on the web (try seadoomanuals dot com).

Also check what garden hose you are using. I had to switch mine to a regular old school hose. I had the kind that is only 3 feet but expands to 40 feet when on...it wasn't getting enough water flow...somebody on here told me to switch hoses and it worked...

I neglected to mention, the boat factory service manuals are often not available so you might discover the jetski manual covering the same power plant is a reasonable proxy. ie: I refer to the jetski manuals when performing maintenance on my boat.
