"Hi Boaters!
I just purchased a 1987 Regal with the Merc 165 (Ford 224)engine. We took it out yesterday - it was very hot here in the south (98 degrees). When at idle, the temp quickly ran up - so hot that when we cut the engine, we had to let it cool down before the starter would even start it. If we ran it wide open - temp would come back down. As it cooled down last night, the temp stayed fine - running or idling. Any help would be appreciated."
