I ended up with a thermostat from O'Rielly and installed it this morning. I tested the car in the driveway and it seemed ok. I took it for a drive and the t-stat failed to open and the engine began to overheat. I had to park the car and get a ride back to the house to get the original tstat to install. Almost the most expensive tstat I have ever bought. Who would have ever thought one could fail out of the box...

Does anyone know if Dodge dealers sell a Mopar Thermostat, so that this will not happen again ???
