[Shotimes] Modified thermostat

[Chris "Zap"]

Whoops.. forgot to copy the list! Let's try that again...

I would just like to second this question...  After having the another hole
in a different coolant hose after replacing this 192F, 1 jiggle valve
thermostat with the genuine Ford item.  Could the new T-Stat be causing an
increase in pressure and causing weaker hoses to fail, or.. am I just lucky?
heh
