Ok, I knew I could count on you guys, it is a 1990 not a 98. and Yes, I have have installed a new water pump, and yes I have put the stats in water to check operation temps.(I feel that they open way to late 180-190 degrees) I have even changed the sending unit to make sure of all things. Next I'm going to go with a new gauge no more colores I need numbers) To me the stats open up way to late, I heard about the stats that where mentioned, that they use down south asked my local supplier and he said that he has never heard of it. The stats I have in are white in color I read about a black colored stat that runs cooler??? any thoughts on part number??
Also I bought new stats and the motor overheated in the drive way with the garden hose. Put the old ones back in and it is fine. Just in the bay, running up on plane (4000 rpm) she runs to hot for my comfort.
Thanks,
