Hi Guys,

Just wanted to ask you guys if there is an easy way to diagnose a bad thermostat? I've replaced mine within the past year or two, but am wondering if it is still good. After driving the car for 30 minutes the upper and lower radiator hoses are warm, but they are very firm and I can't really squeeze the hose and make the coolant slosh around. Just installed a new cap to the coolant reservoir too.

Thanks,

Tom
