Default Re: 225 HP Evinrude on 18 CC

If its the same as the 99, yes on all accounts. Mine warms up to 170 degrees and runs much better throughout the entire rpm range with thermostats. Fuel consumption is also less. As for damage when not being run hot enough,I'm not sure. I know they can cold seize. Maybe someone else can chime in on potential problems.
