[QUOTE="Vermonster, post: 285134, member: 7992"] There was definitely a cooling problem. I haven't gotten to the impeller/water pump yet, but I did replace the thermostat today. You might say it was looking a bit rough compared to the new one (without the seal): [ATTACH type="full" alt="thermostat.JPG"]43493._xfImport[/ATTACH] When I took off the thermostat cover (which is the awesome one located on the bottom-not fun), I noticed that some of the heat plastic wrap on the wires were melted to that as well. I also replaced the plugs which I had to order online because I couldn't find anybody that carried them near me. Next up waterpump and impeller - and then the yard test before the lake test. Thanks again for the help! [/QUOTE]
