I was in the process of putting an on-line parts order for 4 other cars and was thinking that I'm way over due for a coolant change on my '86 900T. I thought I would toss a thermostat in my "cart" so I have it ready to go. I can't recall which temp is currently installed. Last time is was changed by SAAB indie mechanic and I am vaguely recalling that he installed a t-stat with a different than "normal" temp for some reason, but I can't recall why, except possibly something to do with emission testing to lower the Nox reading(?) I don't think it had any effect.
Why would one choose the 180F instead of 195F? I live in Southern California and rarely see temps below 40 or above 95 so getting warm air out of the heater isn't an issue. Cooking the battery does seem to be though!
