Ron is right, no 180 degree thermostats in stock but if I choose to bring
one in at next service, they'll install it. Had my first service today at
807 miles to take out the 5w-30 oil and put in 10w-30 'bottled' oil.
(also thought I had a problem with the QCs front doors not catching the
first indent, they tried out QCs and said they felt the same...will have
to watch this...no biggie)

BTW, 2 local autostores and Wal-mart don't carry Rober Shaw TS, only Stant
which I believe I should stay away from, right?

Also no luck on finding Autolite 3923 Copper plugs, just the 5224s...what
auto chain store in the NY area carries these, or where on the WEB could I
get both the 3923s and 755-180 TS?

Thanks!
