I was just curious if anyone has the same problem I do, with my 180 T-stat.
About a year ago, I installed a 180 T-stat. Well, ever since I installed this thing, my car seems to take abouty 30-35 minutes to produce heat. Put it this way, I drive 30-45 minutes to work everyday, and it doesn't get hot the entire way their (thank god I have a garage). I am not sure if this is the heater core going bad, or if the 180 t-stat is just screwed up.
Also, my engine temp almost never goes above the "C". I thought I read on here somewhere, that running TOO cold will harm the vehicle. I am wondering if I maybe ruined something by running TOO cold.
Questions:
1. What are the signs of a bad Heater Core?
2. What are the signs of a bad T-Stat?
