Sierra 18-3536 Thermostat, 143 Degree F, Replaces Mercury Marine 833072
The Sierra 18-3536 is a marine engine thermostat built for Mercury marine applications. It regulates engine coolant flow to maintain proper operating temperature, opening at a rated 143 degrees F (62 degrees C) to help the engine reach and hold optimal temperature for efficient combustion and long-term reliability. Consistent, accurate thermostat operation protects against overheating and against running too cool, both of which can reduce engine efficiency and accelerate wear.
This thermostat is a direct interchange for the original Mercury Marine part, so it installs using the same mounting configuration as the OEM unit it replaces. Sierra manufactures marine replacement parts to meet or exceed the specifications of the original equipment they replace, making the 18-3536 a straightforward swap when a Mercury thermostat has failed or is due for routine replacement.
