Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I know if this thermostat will fit my specific engine model?

The surest way to confirm fitment is by matching your engine's original part number to the ones listed in our Part Number Matrix. You should also consult the Engine & Model Compatibility table to verify your model, horsepower, and year are listed.

What are the common signs of a failing thermostat?

A faulty thermostat can cause engine overheating at various RPMs, or conversely, an engine that runs too cool and never reaches its proper operating temperature. You might notice inconsistent temperature gauge readings or alarms from your engine's monitoring system.

What is the operating temperature of this thermostat?

This thermostat is manufactured to meet the original factory specifications for the correct temperature rating for all compatible models listed. This ensures your engine operates within the range intended by the manufacturer.

How often should I replace my outboard's thermostat?

Refer to your engine's service manual for specific maintenance intervals. As a general guideline, it is good practice to inspect or replace the thermostat every 200-300 service hours or every 2-3 years, especially if operating in saltwater.
