Hello,

You're right in changing the thermostat. As a rule, they should be changed once every 2nd or 3rd year to ensure proper performance. Get one of those rad flush kits, and change the coolant itself for good measure. Nothing beats a little extra preventative maintenance to save a hot summer blow-up.

Happy Bricking!!!
