No Kidding…. The odd thing is that I purchased a Gates at the same time. When I went to test it I noted that on the side it was stamped motorad as well… I stuck it in as it is all I had and I needed to get the car back together. I am going to see if I can hunt down a couple of NOS units… James From: John Grady <jkg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
maybe the fail open design is at the root of it . Just use a stock rock auto mopar thermostat . in another world I dabble in , Eniac computer ( about 1944) had 33000 vacuum tubes , first electronic programmable computer . Cynics said one will burn out before doing one problem
. I met designer , Pres Eckert . He was smarter than the Harvard math guys, cynics doing statistics . It was buikt with off the shelf RCA radio tubes , ( worked) but Navy insisted on ultra high quality tubes ( expert on everything as govt is) That took years , cost a fortune each
one . Put them in , did not work ( got paid anyhow ) Went back to radio /tv tubes made by the 10 millions at RCA worked fine . Had to — in market , or RCA was out of business . Auto parts are the same , Walmart battery really is better than optima by a lot for 1/3 the price . ( check AH at 20 hour rate) ) low production way cool stuff with a lot of marketing hype in gorgeous boxes, wild claims is seldom as good as plain jane slant six stuff . mho
