    This one worked better than the last three. The higher price is justified.

          The thermostat fit exactly as it should. And it works. It is well- built. The best complement is for me to say that I would buy it again.

                            To figure out what temp. your Thermostat is you would have to look in your factory service manual or a haynes repair manual. I also can suggest that you call your local dealership.

                            The best temperature rating thermostat is the one that originally came in your vehicle. Unless you are doing extreme racing, there really is not a need to change the temperature rating on the thermostat.
