Ditto here. though I DID take the time to install a low-temp thermostat, since I was there. If/when you do replace it the low temp is the way to go, especially during hot Texas summers with the A/C blasting! The temp may get as high as before but it only spiking that temp and not staying there. I have extended the engine life in almost every vehicle by replacing the thermostat…..always a racer at heart!
