Default Re: 1998 Hatch overheat.

The thermostat is still orginal. But I'm kinda leery about replacing
it. I've had past situations where the new thermostat didn't work. I
wouldn't want to throw out a perfectly good one (that's proven itself)
for a defective one. The radiator has seen 280,000km and the fins are
beatup to hell and almost flat across the board. Even thow, the engine
bay is huge for such a small engine (very airy), so even a bad rad is
probably still ok. But, I'll have to keep an eye on it when the weather
starts to get realy hot.
