Running a water-cooled engine (diesel or gasoline) at other than the
designed temperature with the specified thermostat or thermostats is
VERY bad for the engine and will shorten it's life in addition to
causing reliability and other issues. The engineers did not add
thermostats for their entertainment value.

I have the same engine in my LF38 which was converted to fwc by the previous
owner. When I went to replace the thermostats I found there were none
installed. The engine runs a 150 degrees at cruising speed with no stats, it
does take a while to reach it though.

Why change? Just let the engine run cooler.

Hi,
I am converting Yanmar 3QM30 raw water cooling system into a fresh water
cooling system with a Sen-Dure heat exchanger. The current thermostat is
Yanmar part number 105582-49200. The fresh water thermostat listed for
the 3QM30F looks like a completely different size thermostat. Does
anyone know the Yanmar part number for a fresh water (i.e. higher
temperature) thermostat which will fit a raw water 3QM30 system?
Thanks for any help.
