    Thanks for the video! Can you recall the temperature range you were looking for?

      That's a great question, I should have mentioned that. The Yanmar service manual for the 2GM20F shows the temperature switch normally off at 187F and comes on above 193-202F and the thermostat fully open at 185F. So based on that I was looking at 180 as a max temp since I was looking at the surface of the engine.

    This the most bizarre desmonstration why distilling water but not the real antifreeze just fews dollar a gallon? Just thinking

      Thanks for your comment and my apologies for not making this more clear. I was using distilled water to flush out old antifreeze/coolant. It took several flushes with running the engine each time for several minutes to clear most of the old coolant. Perhaps there is a more aggressive flush than distilled water but I could not find anyone to recommend one. After the last flush, I filled the engine with a diesel engine coolant.
