I have a 1998 TE28 with the Peninsular Beast. It started running at 200 about a week ago. I have a few questions. I can only get to about 3000 rpms at WOT and that will get me to 17 km? Do I need to take the heat exchanger off to replace the impeller and if so can anyone give me some simple steps to changing it out.
I lost one of the fuse caps on the dash. Anyone know where to get one that matches. All the ones I can find are to long. Thanks. Anyone know a Peninsular mechanic near Rock Hall MD.

Re: Running warm
I have the same engine,
I have the water pump impeller changed every 2/3 years,
Cooling loop flushed as soon as it gets over 190 consistently,
I did have someone flush out the old coolant and have the aftercooler taken off and tank cleaned,
My speed is 16-18 knots at 2,800-3100 rpm
Wot is 3,500 or so, 22.5 Kts
They do seem to be a bit slow with the peninsular

Re: Running warm
Same engine. Same issue. Same thoughts.
Change the impeller and flush.
Yes, your WOT is low. Should be 3500.

Re: Running warm
Also did you replace the impeller. If not how much would it cost.
