At full throttle I have 47psi on the port and 29psi on the starboard. The starboard one is the one I’m having an issue with.

I get 3-4 psi at idle on my 525. Service manual says max pressure at speed is 43 but I regularly see higher than that and so do many others so 47 is fine. The 29 psi I'd be concerned about, as you are!
Edit: F-2 Speedy, I respect your knowledge but lots of us run that high of pressure on a 525. |
Bravoitis on the stbd side ?

Can’t get videos to upload to show the difference of water flow from inlet hose off transom assm
My vote is you have a partial obstruction somewhere.

Well I stand corrected, cuz I don't run antifreeze motor's......:lolhit:

10-11psi of water pressure at idle is a ton. Mine at idle is about 2 psi. More important is what is the water psi while running?

1st thing always is to put something thru each water opening in the oil cooler.....as previously told. Doesn’t take much for a few or. 10 or 20 tubes to get something in them.
Many times back-flushing does squat. Soeaking of which always amazes me how many big chunks of impeller I find in entrance of oil cooler in a boat with an impeller that’s in good shape. Person changing the blown apart impeller dumb or lazy or couldn’t give **** ? Doesn't’ wonder ‘Hey, wonder where the pieces went ?’ |

Okay, well...,
Maybe recheck the drive to transom water transfer oring and if okay check lower drive to upper water transfer oring. Maybe f’d up or ??? during service/installation. |
