T/R 3A, what's the lists opinion about blocking off the water by-pass, I have a original Smith skirted thermostat, so is there any yes/no involved here. Final count on the oiler was 31 to =="0"==, ag

Hi Fred, I think this comes into the category of "If it ain't broke...don't fix it". If your skirted thermostat works, then things are functioning as designed. Casper had the bypass blocked off and

I did this (blocked it, with a hunk of broom stick) years ago just 'cause Bob Schaller said so... at that time I don't think the skirted tstats were available. I've never had an overheating problem,

Never occured to you to wonder why the factory went to all the trouble to design and build in this useless bypass of the radiator? Plug the pypass and very little coolent flows inside the engine & h

Anyone know how this story is substantiated? The factory connection ? I'd never heard it till lately, but I've only been fooling with the 4 cyl since 64. The early TR2 had a problem keeping an intact

Bob : Well, I doubt this was developed solely on the TR motor. _All_ cars (at least those with water cooled engines and thermostatic water flow controls) have a bypass in one form or another, it's si

SO your stance is that automotive engineers designed a coolant bypass into the furguson/Standard/Triumph engine, all the four cylinder petrol engines used in all the Land Rovers from 1948 through th

IMHO it's general engineering practice to include a bypass in the cooling system when it is fitted with a pump and thermostat . TeriAnn has described some of the reasons .Another reason is to avoid p

Randall, In his book Piggot states re the TR4/4A: "the correct type [of thermostat], which is now very hard to find, having a 'bypass blanking ring' to ensure that the bypass hose route is cut off on

Randall, Yep. Original thermostat was a skirted one. The bypass hole was designed to allow a small amount of coolant to flow into the block and circulate in the system until the thermostat opened. Th
