So a couple of days ago I changed out the port impeller like I do every 2 years and the removed impeller was in perfect shape but replaced it anyway. After running the boat today, everything was working very well as usual except I noticed much more steam than usual. This is not white smoke.
The starboard engine was showing very little steam but the port engine, much more. This is on the side I replaced the impeller. I used a infrared temperature gun and things were nice and normal. The aftercooler was not excessively hot and the engines ran just fine at 2200 rpm at 180 degrees. No signs of overheating at all. The air was cool and the water about 58 degrees. I boat in San Diego. Am I chasing dragons or is there something there I need to be concerned with? I have Cummins 6bta 5.9 330hp. Thanks for any direction
