Re: Boat pisser

the telltale should have a good stream of water coming out at all times not only somtimes.

Re: Boat pisser

I believe the normal would be whenever it is running to have water "pissing" from the boat's dinky.

Re: Boat pisser

Think about it. Your thermostat is like a gate. When it gets hot, it pulls back and allows water to flow. You also must keep in mind that these thermostats a re critical since engines are designed to run at certain temperatures for optimum performance. If your motor isn't "pissing" it may not be warm enough to open the thermostat. When it is, it allows water to pass and cool the motor. As it does, the thermostat will cool and close. Newer motors will usually have a constant tell tale stream, but it shouldn't be abnormal for an older model year motor to have an irregular stream. Is it overheating?
