Re: Stus-List Yanmar 3QM30 thermostat for converted system

Running a water-cooled engine (diesel or gasoline) at other than the designed temperature with the specified thermostat or thermostats is VERY bad for the engine and will shorten it's life in addition to causing reliability and other issues. The engineers did not add thermostats for their enter

Charlie, Is 1000# the actual weight of your centerboard? That's heavy but effective in keeping the boat upright. It looks hard to bottom paint a centerboard because our lift can't lift 35 footers high enough to lower the board fully. Does the trunk need painting too? Chuck Resolute 1990 C&

Re: Stus-List Yanmar 3QM30 thermostat for converted system

keep in mind that the coolants in two systems are different. If you have a raw water cooled engine, the system has to work below the boiling point (usually around 90-95 C); if you have the fresh water cooled engine, the inside system runs hotter (around 102 C), because it is a bit pressurised no

Paul, my counter point is that the engine, as Bill Bina put it, was designed to run a certain temp. Presumably that of the existing thermostat. It sounds like the thermostat is close to 150. If you heat the water more than 120-130 there is safety concern regarding scalding. Changed the stat and
