I need a new thermostat. The old bellows type are available but there is a new type which is cheaper. I dont see the need to fork out extra $ on the bellows if the new one is good
Old Bellows New type Anyone had any experience? |

my understanding is the new one fails with flaps closed which reduces the airflow through the oil cooler. the old style fail open so the air through the oil cooler.
so I would go with the old style. |
