I just purchased a 1998 115hp FFI. It ran just fine on a "sea trial". After a few days the high temp light came on so I replaced the t stats, temp sensor, and temp sw. and water pump. Plenty of water from pump, heads are not hot. The light still comes on. It will go out after running for a while. Also, I ran the motor a few days ago and put on about 40 miles with no other issues. I went out this am (boat is on a mooring) and fired it up and it would not idle - it just started to run away, so I shut it off. It did this about 5 times, so i left it and went out a few hours later and it was fine. Sometimes with a slight throttle advance it will start to race but it can be controlled with the throttle. I am currently in Mexico and was hoping to leave the boat here if I can get some help.
