    check your hoses/lines from the pump to the engine. might have sand or something blocking the water inlet.just a thought.

    I'd say pull the bowl... See if there is a rock or something stuck in here..

    Check the aluminum fitting mounts on the front of the engine for corrosion. They do corrode and block off the water flow into the block.

    Mine did exactly the same thing. It turned out to be a slug of green vegetation stuck in the short pipe (maybe 4-6 inches long) between the bowl and the gate valve. I should have tried to blow water back through the line coming from the pump. I don't know if the stuff would have come out. I just started taking things apart until I found it.
    Good luck
