    How often should the water pump be replaced?

    What is a fair charge for that job?

    Is it OK to run engine without a thermostat?

    I was told by the mechanic it was fine as he has lost engines due to bad ones. He is adamant about using a full synthetic Amsoil, Royal Purple etc. I currently use Pennzoil syn blend TCW3 2 cycle. He just rebuilt everything on the engine as I smoked a cylinder from carbs to the lower unit seals. Yes I trust him. Just looking for addition info from other sources.

    Water pump should replaced every 2 years. Might can run without thermostat on a carb model engine but not a fuel injected model.
