My port engine this spring started running hot at idle and would cool down at higher RPM. I changed out the thermostat and it was all good. I could let it idle for 45 mins. and it would never go above 150deg. Just recently I noticed it starting to run hotter again at idle (200deg). I can put it in neutral and rev it up to 1500 rpm and it will cool back down in about 10 seconds. Same symptoms before a change the thermostat out. But then the next day it will run at normal temp. at idle. Is it possible that the new thermostat is sticking?
