Mitch at geomag wrote in about a missing thermostat w/ his engine. Well, my dual port 1600 didn't have one either. Yesterday was the coolest morning we've had since (?April?) at about 29 (faren.). My engine would not idle, and did not run normally for quite a while. I diagnosed this as an icing carb and the lack of a thermostat/supporting tin. I feel a bit uncomfortable driving the bus without the proper thermostat and will prolly hunt one down this weekend.. christian
