OK, this has really gone off the rails, let's be very clear, NO Inline Six released by Mercury for production use has EVER has a thermostat. To tear the motor apart looking for one would be counterproductive.

Best maint on an I-6 is to do routing decarbonization treatments, ensure the cooling system is working properly by servicing the water pump/impeller periodically, and making sure the timing/synchronization is correct.

Here's some info on decarbonizing and Link 'n Synch procedures that should help:

Re: Where is Thermostat

I still don't understand why they would put a thermostat in a motor 1/2 the size but NOT in an inline 6 1150! Makes no sense........
