Normally, it will tilt enough to come off without disturbing the nut. If yours won't, I would suspect some sort of accident damage in that area. Frankly, I think unbolting the box and moving it upwa

Seems self-evident to me. Without the bypass, the water doesn't circulate at all when the thermostat is fully closed. With no circulation, you're going to get hot spots. The hottest spots will be in
