Hi All-
I just installed a thermostat+bracket from AA in my '73 2.0 as the PO had removed the original hardware and was running with the flaps full-open. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) The design looks quite different than the OEM one. It looks to my novice eyes like a Beetle thermostat. I have a few questions that I'd appreciate any help with: Does anybody know the story behind the AA thermostat? Is it a modified beetle stat like it looks? If it fails, will it fail with flaps open or closed? (I think the OEM stat was designed to fail with flaps open -- please correct me if I'm wrong...) Is the temperature operation close to OEM? Anybody use one? How did it work for you? Thanks. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
