Hi.

Hope on help for a new member.. :)

I just bought me a "new" boat with a Honda BF 45 motor.

The motor is gette too hot after a short while running.
I changed the Impeller so now the it looks like the cooling water is working fine.

So now i'm planning to change the thermostat.
But..
Where do I find the thermostat on this engine?

Anyone that has a guide how to change this?

The thermostat is on top of the motor on the port side, under the black flywheel cover.
