Thanks Jeff!  Hmm - so what does the thermostat affect?  I tell ya' I'm getting a little confused - new to all of this.  Thanks for your help.

Peace,

Marla, I'm coming in late here but just an FYI...the thermostat does not
affect the cooling fan directly.  The cooling fan is actuated by the
radiator temp sender located in the radiator itself, midway to low on the
driver side....have to remove the lower grill to access it.  A lower
radiator temp sender is available and I run one to allow the fan to come on
at a lower temp (sooner) than stock.  I do not run the lower thermostat as I
think the engine runs better with the proper thermostat in place.   

Good luck with Vanmorrison!
