High new to this forum, I did a search probably wrong I purchased this boat last fall with boating season pretty much over and only went with the seller for test ride just put it in the water this weekend for the first time and was wondering what the water temp should run at idle the gauge reads from 100 to 240 I have no owners manual and not able to contact the person I bought it from. Boat runs good just don't want to run it to warm
Thanks for any help.
Gauge should read around 160 degrees. Welcome to the Rider club.Quote:

Thanks for your help any other info would be appreciated.
The 351W should run at 160. A few years ago, under the advise of Rich at skidim, I installed a 145 degree thermostat to achieve exactly 160 on my gauge. My temp sender is at the front starboard corner of the intake.
