Busy maintenance day....... low temp thermostat, engine mount, bleeder valve and cap...... it's shifting better, running cooler, instead of on the zero on 180 it right on the line above 180......

Too soon to tell about the bleeder/cap, BUT the bleeder spring seems much stiffer than the old bleeder, and it's not "popping" up after being driven......

For those interested in the motor mount, it's easy to drive the old insert out using the tools to pull wheel bearings once you drill out what's left of the center. Using a not too big bench vise I was able to push the new insert in (left it in the freezer for a day)....... basically start with little pushes, and switch between "edges" on the mount......
