Acid flush raw water system.....

Here are the "before" pictures. Rigging the plumbing as we speak. I don't know if it's bad enough to cause it to run warm, but it certainly looks like it won't hurt. Can't seem to get them in focus but you get the idea.....

How long for the "after"?

I’ve seen lots worse, it needs it in my opinion.

Not what I wanted to hear...... If it's not "that" bad it may not be the cause of my temp issue. The impeller was in good shape. There was a lot of scoring in the plate so that's being replaced.

Still waiting on a temp sender. The one in there may not have been the right one.

Meanwhile after 45 minutes the solution is turning black.

Keep in mind that even if the impeller "appears" to be in good shape, they can loose their elasticity and not pump as efficiently as intended. If there is any doubt, go with a new impeller.

Can you give us an idea of what your temp issues are? Have you verified anything with an IR temp gun? Any details may help others get you pointed in the right direction.

I agree that what you are doing was probably needed, but was it the cause of the overheating? maybe, maybe not.

Rebuilding pumps that are worn out may he the problem.

I send customers pumps to depco all the time. Funny what they find. Its worth it.

It feels pretty good, but nevertheless there's a new one going in.
