choice of thermostats? 200

Kris, be careful of non-import auto parts stores. I had both NAPA and PepBoys try to sell me thermostats that did not have the rubber sealing ring. And then the guy at NAPA gave me a bunch of crap when I mentioned it had the wrong gasket (flat paper chebby style),if I hadn't looked in the box I'd have been home with a useless part.

Also cheap 'stats are a crapshoot, I had one fail in less than a year, Wahller (sp?) is good or so it seems.
