Re: flooding 6hp

well, the gurgling noise must not mean much, or perhaps it was extra fuel that was pooled up in the motor, because it seems to be running just fine now after the fuel pump and boss gasket repairs.

Side question – I ended up replacing the thermostat because the original had failed. The newer ones don’t have the little relief slot on the top, was that simple to help the motor get up to temperature faster? I was thinking that if there was an air pocket, this could keep air in the cylinders if the newer style thermostats ever failed and stayed shut.

Thanks
