Your system my just need a good burb. I usually park on a hill and open the radiator cap and fill with the engine running.

Stock replacement straight from China. And it has the provisions for an auto trans which obviously I dont use.

And I think I mis-quoted the first quote. Thermostat is from AZ not radiator.

Quick question. Just replaced all of the A/C, thermostat, temp sensor, gaskets, etc......but now then aux fan comes on nearly all the time. Start it up when cold, 5 seconds later it comes on for 15 seconds and then off for 15 seconds, then on, then off. This even happens when driving on the highway and temps are low.
Any thoughts?
New relay? or it that too simple.
Thanks.

Default MotoRad High flow or fail safe? jiggle valve?

Ok, so I've seen a few comments about MotoRad tstats. I see they have a failsafe and a highflow. They also recommend getting one with a jiggle valve (it bleeds the air out). What I can't determine is do they all come with a jiggle valve and which is better, the highflow or failsafe? Anyone use these?
Is it better to get a Stant, who have been around forever and make many OEM's?
