John,
When I tried one, it made my temp gage flutter! If you have not had that
problem, maybe I will try again. Perhaps there was physical contact with
the gage bulb?

I imported 3 of these into Australia for myself and 2 colleagues from
Norman Nock some years ago. Not expensive at the time and assisted in
solving all our overheating problems. If they do fail, unlike the
original the stick in the open position so will not do any damage due to
overheating. For some reason, car seams to run nicer too. I have tried
to convince a number of owners her but gave up when head became too sore
from bashing against the brick wall. You can only do so much!
