ep82 Posted July 21, 2010 Author Share Posted July 21, 2010 OK. I think I will do this myself this weekend, is there any chance I can damage something? been reading the B18 one on ek9.org and he said about shorting out the starter motor???I just dont want to damage more things as I am a one of those people who breaks things more than mend things.also where is the best place to get a thermostat?

Spadooky Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Buy from a local motor factors,i googled partco and theres one in poole, this will be far cheaper than somewhere like halfwhits as partco charge trade price's and not retail! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jalesi2001 Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 I dont think there is a performance one Chi, I cant really see what the point would be, and how you can make the performance of a thermostat better???!!! When the coolant gets hot, it should open, its a simple thing, doesn't need to be a racey one!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jalesi2001 Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Yeah fair enough, but who is gonna pay silly money for a spoon 'stat on a daily driver?!! That's like putting a spoon rad cap on..... might look cool to have spoon kit on your car, but what a total waste of money!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
