My Yanmar 2610 is boiling over into the overflow tank. This is the first time I have used it since wunter and it got hot. Does it have a thermostat that could be stuck?

If that one has a thermostat, they can stick, but the usual culprits are leaky rad cap, blocked air passages, broken fan belt, blocked water passages in the rad or engine, or straight water as the coolant. If those are OK, could be a bad head gasket. ....

Don't forget to check the obvious stuff too.

Things like a plugged debris screen in front of the radiator, or a rad clogged with weed seeds will make them boil over pretty quick too.

Best of luck. ....
