My 150 MERC didn't spray a steady stream either.

This may be a stupid question, but are you sure it is the overheat turning the horn on? Try unhooking the overheat sensors one at a time to see if it is actually the overheat sensors doing it. There is also a chance that parts of your old t-stats are obstructing flow somewhere in there fropm the looks of what you removed. Try running it with the t-stat covers off fopr just a few seconds and make sure water is flowing up to that point with a good stream.

Hmmm, maybe a bad sender? Have you put your hand on the heads while she's running? Maybe she's not really hot afterall? I do know that Mercs don;t pee till the stats open, then they pee different as the stats open and close, hence the reason not consistent as noted above. Your stats have been hollowed out, so that shouldn't be the case.

Just trying to keep the flow of ideas going.
