Tempteratur was measured at the bottom, the source of the heat inside the container. The copper part on the other hand was at the top of the container, the furthest from the source.
Sorry to tell you but the standard thermo was a 92°, the 88 was fitted to vehicles going to colder climates from 1970 /1984, the extra 4 makes a big difference
No problem. The car was actually still overheating and I found it to be a blockage in the radiator. Upgraded that and ran the car for a year in very hot weather with the colder thermostat and it was fine. I never took it out in cold weather to see the difference
YES you can see at 2.26 that it's in backwards. The "wax" end should be on the hot side, engine side, as that what makes the thing work ! The other way in would need the radiator water to get to 88"c before the valve opens.
This is so weird, i bought a transit with the same engine as this some years ago. Bought it at the "specialist" here in the netherlands. I drove it for a summer, no real problems i only noticed when it rained the temperature suddenly droped. And then in winter it ran verry cold. Sooooo that should probably be a stuck open thermostat. I went to check it and indeed. It was stuck open. But also it was mounted the wrong way round! Even for a van that was maintained at the specialist! I reckon they are mounted wrong way round because it actualy fits. I am a mechanic and i never seen a other engine where it was possible to mount it the wrong way round.

it looks like your thermostat was upside down. the spring side should be pointing into the block

Good advises..thanks
You’re welcome

Stainless alternator bolt is nice, Burton cam cover would b nicer
Thanks for the advice. It would make it look nice but the one I have works and an unnecessary expense.
The tappets (rockers) sound like the salvation army band lol..........9th/11thou
Yes they were out and needed adjusting, not so bad when car was warm. thank you
HELP - My 72 2.0 4 speed keeps stalling unless I keep my foot in it?? as soon as I let off gas it dies

@@alfatechniks887 it had a spec of dirt in one jet
What to do with the duratec problems ?
What problems are you experiencing? Different engine altogether compared with a pinto
@@alfatechniks887
I heard of overheating issues Same with the Duratec... Hoped anybody could explain that
This must me out a sierra
Any holes or vents in your bonnet?
No but there’s no floor under the engine so plenty of air to escape and flow out
