92 Evinrude 60hp TE60TLENE<br /><br />In searching the forums for cooling system concerns for my engine, I have found several posts stating that service bulletin # 2276R1 calls for relocating the tell-tale hose to the top of the powerhead and changing the thermostat pressure relief spring which is included in waterpump kit pn 432955.<br /><br />My local dealer has printed this bulletin this bulletin for me and it does cover relocating the tell-tale but there is no mention of waterpump kit or spring. I ask him to order pn 432955 and he says it is not a good number. Also the thermostat I purchased from him came with a diaphragm type gasket not the regular paper gasket I removed from my engine. The long spring behind my stat will not work with the new diaphragm type gasket. He is ordering the spring listed in his catalog with the thermostat he sold me. Is this the improved version in the now nonexistent water pump kit pn 432955?<br /><br />Im replacing the powerhead due to bad scoring in the #2 cyl and want to make sure I have no cooling issues. (Which I've been told was the cause of my meltdown).<br /><br />Thanks
He did't seem to be aware of these bulletins until I asked for them.
