Good morning MN and good night Tom.

You should just stay up a little longer and chat with me before I make the donuts. haha

That guy only joined FTE to sell that truck. After it sells no more posts from him.

My brother said I have a bad T-stat. My temps were ECT 184* and EOT 184* last night. I took a pic of the display and sent it to him. He replied the T-stat is bad. What should they be? If I replace it then will my temps be outta check or will they go up along with the T-stat I put in?

Well my brother saw the temps and said my T-stat is bad. He said temps should run in the 190ish range.

So he must think it is stuck open? How long does it take to get to that temp? I would think if it gets there relatively quickly you are ok like Dave said.
