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

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?

Rob, I just did it last weekend while I was changing the shift and throttle

forward to get the cables changed. Re-installing the brake was easy by
comparison. As Sylvain and others have mentioned, after removing the

Graham,
Thank you for your offer of assistance.if I decide to do this job, I
will take you up on your offer and if it is any consolation, I don't
work unless there is 'beer', so you have no worries.

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

Thanks to all. Looks like I was just over thinking it.
I was concerned about lateral movement with board down sitting in slip.

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

Gee, Andy,
I'm really surprised nobody replied yet. There's usually a decent

the Flex-O-Fold supporters. I swing a Martec 2 blade folder on Touche'.

I sprung for a Gori Racing folder about 3 years ago after some internet

The same reason your car runs at or above boiling in a pressurised system. Less heat (energy) goes out with the cooling water, and instead goes out the output shaft as torque.There's also some thermodynamic stuff going on in the combustion chambers, but as I get older, my brain fills up quicker
Josh,
I've always been told that it has more to do with more complete combustion
of the fuel at a higher temperature, especially for diesel engines. Diesel
engines operated at to low a temperature tend to clog the exhaust manifold
and exhaust with carbon, similar to what also happens if a
When in doubt read the directions?
Check your owners manuals and it should specify typically 165 to 195 degrees
for a diesel engine.
I checked my Universal M4-30 manual and that's what is said on page 12. All
models except their M-15 which should run 135 to 155 degrees.
Best advice I can
