Changed from 180 to 135.

 

21-NA-199

 

You could do a pill flip or order a new t-stat and ensure it's stamped with a "70" on the housing.

Thanks again..

I have an appointment Thursday,service manager said bring it in so they can check the drive train for codes ,mention to him it shifts sluggish,late shift..and noticed Tran tempt was around 190plus ,,this is after driving on the highway for 3,4 hrs ,I’m sure they aren’t gonna go for a long drive to try to duplicate the complaint,truck still under drive train  warranty,asked if there was any bulletins  on issue,he checked with someone there and came back saying there was none.just don’t want to throw $125 out the window for a dia..problem not found  at this time lol ,any advice would be great .thanks again Scott

Didn’t know if I should just go and buy the up dated one ,and put the money towards that new one ,or flip it like you had mentioned.looks pretty simple to replace.

Very easy to replace. Lot of info in the other thread in regards to torque specs, etc. Honestly, I flipped the pill and would do that again. I'm actually looking into what's linked below to allow for better flow.

190⁰ with OEM thermostat is pretty normal according to how it works. But with the new thermostat, it would definitely be lower by 30-40⁰ minimum.

 

The new thermostat takes about 10 mins of your time and is pretty simple to do. IMHO, this is the best way to go.

 

The pill flip is a bit more involved but doable. Because of the retainer clip that needs to be removed to get the cap off, you really need 3 hands to do it, LOL. And getting that cap and retainer clip back on is also a bit of a challenge.

    • Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.
    • Paid $2.72 for E85 today.
    • Welcome back! No, it definitely doesn't pass the sniff test. Even "ceasefire" needs an alternative definition these days.    $5.29 at Kroger today
    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
