ill go pick one up tomarrow and throw it in my tool box can never hurt

 

nope

 

hey waht part of puyallup you in my uncle lives over there

 

I live in the upper part.Some people also call it south hill.I'm above the puyallup fair grounds.I'm a mile from the south hill mall.

 

year when I change coolant and flush the system I change the T-stat. I just pick pu a new one at NAPA and drop it in.

But to this day I've got 135K miles on my truck and never had a cooling system problem. My radiator and block are spotless...

 

Wow - thats clean.

But I personally wouldnt trust my engine to a cheap thermostat. Cummins all the way.

 

According to my trucks temp gauge, my old thermostat was opening at about 180, my new thermostat opens at just a hair over 190 on the guage. I'm curious, when your thermostat opens, does your gauge drop all the way back to 140?

 

what do you mean thermostat opening?
