Good evening all, I am making a batch of thermostat soup, ( wife is real happy ), And i am wondering how long should it take to open fully? I am experiencing coolant bubling in the tank but the radiator is stone cold as well as the big hose on top of the theromostat housing. Should this thing open as soon as it is submurged in boiling water or does it take some time? It seem to take about 2 min to open. I think this thing is done but I have never had a thermostat fail closed ? Jim Morgan 86 Gl 210,000.0 "bread box" Westlake,Ohio jm060356@aol.com |
