Tstat


Recommended Posts

Well replaced the impeller, checked the trans cooler and hoses for debries, anything else I should try before replacing the t-stat? The boat will not hold a constant temp, last year it was rock solid on 160, this year it's all over the place 150 to 205. Does not look like a huge deal to change the t- stat, any tips on changing it?

Make sure you get the gasket with it. Mine was leaky since I just RTV'd it (apparently poorly) and wouldn't get up to operating temp until it was well sealed again. Should be an easy swap overall.

I had the same issue. New impeller, tstat, and all clean hoses. Turned out my main water pump was shot. It's a fairly easy swap, and worked for me.

Picked up a new t-stat and gasket (hopefully the right one), will swap it out this weekend, hopefully that works as warranty from my 'local' dealer is pretty much impossible.
