How do you replace a thermostat on a 2 stroke 2003 40hp mercury outboard?

Locate thermostat, on 40 HP it is on the left side of the motor near the top of the water jacket, left side from the back. It is held on by 4 bolts. Remove the flywheel cover, then remove the four bolts holding the thermostat/poppet valve cover. Pull out the thermostat. Be sure to note of the direction in which the thermostat is facing before removal. Put in new thermostat in reverse order. You may need a new gasket.

It is your choice, depending on the problem.


96chevy cavalier ohv 2.2L that cools right down to 40 degrees c at highway speeds plus no heat lower city speeds you have heat and it run normal operating temp thermostat changed and not stuck open?

If you are saying that at highway speeds it is running at 40 degrees celcius (and it isn't extremely cold out), I would say that your thermostat is sticking open. I know you put a new one in, but every now and again a new thermostat will either stick open or shut. If you do the work yourself, what you can do to test the thermostat is to remove it and put it in a pot of boiling water, you should see it open up. Now remove it from the water and watch it, it should close up in a short amount of time, if it doesn't you need a new thermostat. If it is working, I suggest making sure that the cooling system is completely full with no air in the system. If this doesn't work, you might want an expert to take a look at it. Hayden
