Talking New Thermostat

Just install this a Jet 180 degree thermostat. Also did a flush of the cooling system and it was nice and clean.

Right now have no plans for anything else. Going to use stock e-fan and give it some time see if new thermostat will keep cool enough. Right at this time I have the e-fan wired to a toggle switch.I am hoping with the 180 degree thermostat and stock e-fan and knowing the system is clean. This will work without anymore added expense.

Thanks
