Question Thermostat Question !

I have the cooler running fan switch and I believe the stock thermostat in the water pump. Could this cause the water temp to fluctuate during driving? Can any one tell me where to get a thermostat that would work more fluidly with the lower temperature fan switch. What temp thermostat would work best etc.

Thanks

I hate to admit it but I got a 160" at O'Reilly's. My gauge sits steady at the 1st white line.

Wow 160 -
I just got a 180degree thermo and I thought that was low. Haven't installed it yet.
Where can I get the 160 degree unit?

I am not familiar with O'Reilly's

Thanks
Paul

O'reilly's is a chain about like Auto Zone. If you can't get ome locally,I know they keep them in stock here. And I still get HOT heat in the winter. I just found the box it's a Stant part# 13376.

When I went to the local foreign parts place who is seems knowledgeable, he sold me a 92C but all Tweeks sells is 80 and 83C, not much help I guess.
