    2007 Yamaha F200 Thermostat Problem

    After repairing a leaking port side thermostat housing on my 2007 Yamaha F200, I installed a new thermostat. On starting the engine after this work, there was no water coming out of the telltale. As soon as the overheat beeper sounded, I shut it down. The motor was on the boat and...
