[QUOTE="NineLives, post: 458537, member: 24241"] Thank you for answering my question. I'll look at Stant. I think it's the therm because everything else "normal" has been done to my Jeep to address overheating and/or dramatic temp fluctuations. Within last 3 weeks: Both heads/gaskets repaired, new intake gaskets, 2 new cams and all rockers, new timing chain kit, new water pump, new thermostat, radiator flush. I'm running very warm consistently after about 15mins of driving. Stays in the 226-235 temp range, fan is constantly blowing. Easily climbs to the 240s and over the weekend it red lighted at 257 going up a hill. Honestly don't know if I have an air pocket, need to change the rad cap and/or have a junk therm. All of that is inexpensive, which is why I was looking for other parts manufacturers. The shop that did the work is being unhelpful after the repair. [/QUOTE]
