[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 431048, member: 3278"] [size=5]Thermostat is needed for three reasons. First reason is for a good smooth idle (compared to no thermo). Second reason is to keep from making water inside the engine while in colder water. Third reason is premature wear of the pistons. Hot piston/cold sleeve equals an increased rate of wear. The information listed in another post is the old wives tale stuff left over from a bygone era. [/size] [/QUOTE]
