Reply to "The Old Wrong Thermostat Trick"

George PAdmin.

Tim,

the last time we covered the topic of thermostats, I didn't have a digital camera available. So now is a good opportunity to throw up some pictures of the proper thermostat for a 351C.

If the thermostat in your 351C does not look like the one in the pictures below, you have the wrong thermostat, and as Tim pointed out, your engine is constantly bypassing a significant amount of coolant from circulation through the radiator.

Happy New Year Tim.

George
