[QUOTE="prowedge, post: 127981, member: 23301"] I pulled the thermostat out and it doesn’t begin to open until after 200°F And closes around 180°F. I noticed it did not have the rubber O-ring around the edges of it, could that cause a problem? I checked the engine and radiator with an infrared thermometer, The highest reading I got was just under 195 right below the thermostat and the temp gauge was just beginning to hit the hot side on the gauge. Since I had the thermometer on it and knew it wasn’t getting extremely hot I let it run for longer than normal and I could begin to feel warm coolant coming back down out of the radiator so I can tell it is circulating [/QUOTE]
