[QUOTE="aogrady, post: 128615, member: 3512"] Hi Loxy, Hmm, no the engine was stone cold - i only took the pic as i had the coverss off, and to be honest, i didn't think there was a thermostat fitted, so i bought a spare one of another forum member. Can i test it with a hairdryer in situ? So when the engine is hot, i thought it expands open is that not the case, i though mine looked closed - could be the angle though as you say. If i take off the under neath tin can i see the rest of the mechanism working? I dont have the OG filter as the PO had chopped off the stand to fit twin carbs. I have a new air filter stand and filter to go back on some tin. Though it is a AE bug engine, and i think the tinware is wrong anyway, but would like to know if the stat and associated gubbins is working as is should....... Cheers! Alistair [/QUOTE]
