Yes I think so...but back to my original comment...the car was driven some distance by the appraiser before it left the U.S...this would not have been possible if the stat was wrong as the engine would have let go after a short time as it gets too hot after. 3 mins sat in my garage...I can remove the stat completly to eliminate this but think there is another issue
