Kevin,

Measure the diameter of the stock T'Stat (if you still have it out). I
want to look something up....

YOUR CONFUSED! After reading this thread which I started....I'm even
more confused. Well I know for sure that the 330-180...which had
previously been stated as a valid T-Stat DOESN'T fit.......but I'd like
to take care of this tomorro. SO, I'm gonna try to find the
370-180...and just incase I'll also look at the 300-180. As my truck is
just sitting there without the upper radiator hose connected, I will
bring my stock T-Stat with me to Autozone for comparison.

Hopefully you can help me here Bernd. My stock T-Stat has a small
tapered portion (where the spring is), this end goes into the
opening......Should the aftermarket T-Stat "look" the same as the stock
one did?? I'm hoping maybe you recall at least what it looked like.

I will attempt a resolution tomorro, if it fits, I will notify you so
future Dakers wont run into this (obviously this is my 1st T-stat change
since ownership :-))

Later, and thanks Ron and Bernd for the quick responses....of course I
was tryin to get to the store today before it closed...hence my urgency
initially.

Kevin
