Another step that might be worth taking is to place the new thermostat in a
pan of water on stove burner & raise the water temperature. Monitor the
temperature with a thermometer & see if the thermostat opens at the specified
temperature. It can be very frustrating & confusing to replace a bad component
with another bad one!

Subject: Re: [Healeys] Changing the thermostat
Thanks everyone for the advice--I'll likely be doing this job this
fternoon so will be able to report the results quickly. BTW one of the
tricks
ave learned along the way is to drill a small (1/16') hole in the disc to
revent airlock and aid in refilling the block/head with coolant.
