36hp thermo
Just had my 36hp rebuilt and would like to know what is the go with the thermo ?I have been told not to worry about one as they fail a lot on 36hp
motors and cooked them. Any feed back would be helpful .Oh and I will be installing a judson after the motor is run in will that make any
differance?
Cheers :bounce

Theres a 36hp themo ring thing for sale on the Samba site currently. About US$30.
I have never seen a complete working one of these on a 36HP engine before and I have had a few. I was wondering if Aussie made 36'rs even had
them fitted from new. IU guess they just get pulled off and chucked away when they started to cause problems!!

Have a 36hp in Bel. Just collect good parts when you see them and stock pile for when needed.
That's what I'm learning to do:jesus
Inlet manifolds seem to be something that rusts out, and most do have rust when you find them, so if you ever see a good one pick it up. Have just
replaced one
We don't have a thermo fitted
Hey it's fun keeping them stock:thumb
