I'm reading and interesting book about Pontiac engines. Well, actually, the book is being read to me. One of the first things right off the batt, install the thermostat of the temp you want the car to run at. I thought that was quite simple but it goes on to talk about Pontiacs running hot and it does talk about going back to basics and what came on these cars originally basically just as my good friend and lifelong Pontiac guy always says as well...
