Are you saying that the '93 thermos fit in place of the '86?
The thermos were replaced a few years ago.
wouldn't brand new thermos for the '86 be correct?
I need to buy the temp. crayons to know for sure if it is still overheating.

Wildthing,
Sure thing, get me the part numbers if you can. You think they'll fit on a v6? isn't a 300hp a v8
I concur that it seems that the engine always seemed pretty cool. But I've read that the 160degree crayon should not melt, so working temp should be less than 160, and I'm guess more than 140.
Checkout the photos for my other problem regarding the lower pivot point for the tilt ram. http://home1.gte.net/res00jqz/225evinrude/index.html
click on "see photos"...the problem was/is that I couldn't get the lower pivot bar out for the tilt ram...so I became worried and wonder if it is supposed to slide out, like the "thrust rod" located near by.
I haven't been working on it for a while..my next attempts will include a torch to heat the area then grinding one side into a hex (as best as I can) then use an impact wrench to try to turn it. If i can turn it then it should come out.
it looks to me that it IS designed to have the tilt ram come out so that the middle section and can be replaced whilst the engine is mounted (like the use of proper english?).

Mine is a V8, but this guy should be able to come up with something for your application, he closed for the weekend so I will try to get it tomorrow for you. Yes you can do it with the motor on the boat..
