Re: Merc water pressure relief valve
My pressure was pinned at 35, after installed not over 25 and after removing the thermostat no water pressure.Waters 120 and oil temp takes awhile to come up to operating temp.Looking to install oil thermostats now.

Direction is "either"
Make sure you put it just before the crossover so that you don't loose good water flow to your oil and PS coolers. If you put it before the coolers the cooling capacity of the coolers will diminish greatly. |

Yes put it in after the coolers. Merc sends a little instruction sheet along with the part and they recommend after the cooler. |
Re: Merc water pressure relief valve
Must use a full 1" dump.
I dump mine right on top of the outdrive :) |
