p.mole1 Posted April 1, 2017 Author Share Posted April 1, 2017 Anybody know what other vehicles this thermostat was fitted to? I'm having a hell of job locating one at least an 82 degree one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toby S Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Try Rimmer brotherswww.rimmerbros.co.ukLast time I looked they had a genuine Rover part, as well as OEM alternatives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

p.mole1 Posted April 2, 2017 Author Share Posted April 2, 2017 Thanks Rimmer brothers don't seem to have any left but I got hold of one from a Lotus specialist. One thing I have found is there a whole host of different fan switches which may explain why some engines run hot when stationary. I am going to fit an 88 degree fan switch in conjunction with the 82 degree stat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SM25T Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 You might find the fan is on a lot with a fan switch on at 88C ? I have an 82C stat and a fan switch that switches on at 95C and off again at I think 87C. Temperature sits at 80C all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elie boone Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 I found 2 codes for 52mm 82 degree thermostats but they are ether in the USA or Australia, Tridon TT6-180 and Stant ST12-180 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
