Yes, it's running cooler than it should without a thermostat. That could 
cause the plugs to foul. That hasn't been my experience. I don't sail 
(motor) as much as I would like, so that might be part of why mine have 
never fouled noticeably in a season.

There is an excellent Atomic 4 newsgroup (or there was a year ago). You 
might want to check with them if you haven't already.
