Ok, that's sort of where mine sits as well. I read up comments on users and some say this is normal, others say just warm to the touch. I would guess I can maybe hold a finger to the motor core on mine for maybe 2-3 seconds max. I worry because you'd think that much heat is going cause some kind of failure somewhere ... seeing as it's NEVER turned off.
I have 2" pipe on the inlet side but there is a 90 degree bend right at the bulkhead. After that it's straight for at least 14" or so. Maybe too much pipe on the inlet?
