Thermostat switch ?
I have a 76 f-100 with a 390. The thermostat housing has a switch on it. The wires going to the switch have been cut( it was like this when I got the truck ). Are these wires necessary? Is this switch necessary? I know it is not working now, because of the wires being cut, but I don't know why they were cut, and I have seen some other FE engines without the switch. Would it hurt if I took it off completely and just plugged the hole? It would clean up the engine compartment a little.

The sending unit for the temp gauge is in the manifold, and the gauge works good. I just don't want to take a chance of ripping something off the engine that I may regret later. I may take it off anyway. Thanks
