i bought a 1993 honda bf8 last year and it has been a great little trolling motor. i noticed rough idle as the weather has cooled off and i think it might be the thermostat is stuck open.<br />i use it in salt water, and there appears to be a lot of salt build up around the outside of the housing...<br />is it an easy enough task to replace the thermostat?<br />there appears to be about 10 bolts to remove.<br />i assume i should buy new gasket sets as well ?<br /><br />any advice is welcome<br /><br />thanks!
