openning up the side plate and running neutral should allow water to flood the impeller intake whereas bucket testing with a blade churning up air and water doesn’t make for a good water cooling supply. hopefully a simple run in neutral & plate open should help to determine if lake testing would have been a better option.
OP did not indicate if normal open water running helps to cool it down.
see parag.3 in this old post from 20111..talks about water inlet blockage in the PH
