Thermostat Change Out Project & It's Growing
Curt's approach is a good one. Much like mine after buying my PT.
Might as well have a good base line to start from for maintenance. I
know we can't replace everything but many of the parts are pretty
affordable on the Detroits & belts & hoses are going to give it up some
time. So why not do them in the drive instead of the middle of a trip?
