I was just googling thermostats. Some modern ones are two stage affairs so that when they open they have another valve that closes the bypass. A solution that might work for you and I. Drill a small bypass hole (maybe around 3/16") in the thermostat itself. That will allow a small amount of flow to bleed past to let the thermostat know things are warming up. I don't know, The more I think about it, it might just be best to run without the thermostat. I'm curious anyway, I'd like to see how cool it runs with the bypass blocked on a hot 105F day. If I'm driving it on a cool day I'll just get on it harder to make it warm up. ------------------------ spridgets@autox.team.net Archive: http://www.team.net/archive |
