One cool riser, one warm riser...
454/330
Just installed new manifolds, risers, circulating pump and raw-water pump. Everything seems to be operating properly. Plenty of water pouring out both exhausts. Water temp reads OK.
However...one riser (starboard) runs cool to the touch, while the port riser runs "warm" to the touch (sorta fluctuates between warm & cool).
Is this normal? Causes?
Thanks in advance,

Similar quest been posted here before.
It seems that the water flow will vary at idle. Somtimes it will flow more on the left and other times it will flow on the right.
Path of least resistance??
I'd check the temp as you're running on plane. See if it's even then.
