Seems to me like I've got a sticky thermostat. That stinks, its a new
thermostat last month. What kind of stuff could make a thermostat stick open?
I've had 'em stick closed when using bars leaks and stuff but never had one
stick open...
I'll have my Indy change coolant when he does the thermostat this time.
Aftermarket thermostats have a poor history of out of the box failures.
Factory thermostats are about twice as good, but bad ones are still not
uncommon (maybe 5-10%).
