>Now is everyone properly confused? :-)

Not me.... Now I'm enlightened... Thank you for the explanation.. And I have
penciled in your comments in my VV91...

what was confusing me was Jim Arnott said "

fitting
>>with 4 large radiator hoses connecting to it.)

That sounds like the black plastic thermostat housing in 19.8 & 19.10 with
the large hoses connecting to it .... Now I see that little valve on 3 SMALL
hoses in 19.9 & 19.10.... I don't know how you keep up with all those VIN
changes Jim... it just goes to show how well you know these beasts & why it
pays to deal with someone who has your depth of experience
Thanks again
