Reply to "thermostat"

I’m confused.

Can you post photographs, please ?

Here are some terms that are important to any discussion on thermostats:

High flow vs. regular flow thermostat

Perhaps this is what you are referencing with your term “orifice” ?

Brass engine block restrictor plate

Or is this what you are referring to as an “orifice” ?

thermostat “piston “ “hat”

This is not designed to totally block coolant flow when it fully expands in to the restrictor plate.

Rated opening temperature

IMHO, your 160° Is too low
