lv-ab: Overheating

    It would seem to me that a water pump impeller that had lost
    a vane, tooth, or whatever we call it, was failing. Those
    things rely on the strength of the vanes to pump the water.
    The higher the RPM, the more strength required.
     I would re-assemble the whole thing with the new pump
    impeller and try it again, watching the temperature closely!
