Hi all,
I have been reading about the idea of fitting a 87C thermostat from Freelander to a Discovery V8.This is suppose to protect the engine from running to hot and nasty things happening like cylinder liners dropping.
My engine runs at 105C according to Nanocom which I think is okay.Gauge = just tiny bit above half, its always like this for last 2 years.I believe this measurement comes from the ECU. People say its wrong?
One concern I have would be miss fuelling because the the lower temperature, maybe other things come in to play.
My Disco is running nice at the moment, but if can protect it I thought I would see what people thought?
I do not want to mess it up....
