I won't know if my problem is fixed until I go for a ride..When I first got my boat it had PCV's.. I removed them and ran 2 hoses from the valve cover to the arrester's..Now I put back the pcv's..Everything else checks out.. I never had milky oil on my dipstick, only under the valve covers
Did you change anything...The Hp500 has a pcv at the base of the intake behind the carb.Does yours have pcv's ??..Did they remove your heads? to change the springs..Head gasket ?? |

I would just change the stat...It maybe getting stuck in a slightly open position allowing constant flow to the cooler..and keeping you temps at 190
I believe the part number is Merc # 816163 |

Have you tested it since replacing the manifolds?
If not I wouldn't check anything else until you go for a test run. You might be worrying for nothing. :) Lastly, what heads are you running and how old are they? |

What was the compression test #'s... Were they all the same give or take a few..Were there 2 cylinders next to eachother with lower numbers than the rest?
Could also be wrong head gaskets |
