Correct. You can also put the thermostat in boiling water, if it opens, it's working. If it doesn't, it's NOT working. Water boils at a temperature higher than most thermostats, so if it stays closed, it's toast ...How do i know if it is time to ';Change'; a Thermostat?
Yeah for the most part the thermostat either opens or it doesn't. When it doesn't you'll overheat ... You could just change it out because of mileage... It's definitely a part you don't want to go bad.... And doesn't get replaced often unless it just goes bad...
Kind of like your transmission filter.... I bet it's never been changed... Ever! right?
