Here a test for you, pull out your stock t-stat completely. Start your truck
and see how long it takes to warm up, also check out how cool it runs.

Subject: DML: t-stats
I know i am wrong on this but can someone please explain why.
The 180 deg. t-stat makes your engine cooler compared to the 195 t-stat
thus you
get more horsepower.
Now here is what confuses my illiterate when it comes to engines mind.
If the 180 t-stat runs the engine at colder temps wouldn't this cause
the fan to be on longer than normal thus sucking power out of the engine
therefore causing a loss in power as to a gain?????????????
You can emai me privately if you wish.
thanks,
