it cant be a much m8, the cooling system on most engines are quite simple.
to start with check the is no crap floating about in the pipe which goes to the tell tail.
after that check the impeller, thay some times thay debond and give intermitent pumping.also make sure the leg has not been left in mud by blowing back down the pump base and check the is no blockage in the gear box, and then blow back up the pipe hanging from the leg and check it come out the exhust.
if it still playing up check the thermostat.
