This was in Mesquite, Nevada with a bad t-stat. It had to get towed to Vegas, fun stuff... MatFab 12-15-2006, 09:27 PM stock stat or aftermarket? OurZoo 12-15-2006, 09:31 PM That sux either way...........sorry dude. cumadogg 12-16-2006, 11:08 AM anyone know of a good aftermarket one? MNBob 12-16-2006, 09:15 PM Get the Stant 195. I think a lot of the guys have gone with it and I have not heard of any problems. surface tension 12-20-2006, 03:50 PM Cumadogg didn't mention we were doing about 155 mph. jlandbl 12-20-2006, 04:12 PM Cumadogg didn't mention we were doing about 155 mph. Did the t-stat go at 155 or did it happen right after? Sorry to hear about this. Untouchable 12-20-2006, 04:23 PM I hope that's all it is. I assume you had none of the telltale signs of a busted head gasket, water pump either, its all DCX surface tension 12-20-2006, 05:01 PM I am thinking right after. Once we started slowing down we then started seeing a fine mist out of the back but the temp. guage was still low so we pulled in to the next gas station and the picture tells the rest of the story. I called the Jeep 1-800 towing service, they picked us up in an hour and took us to Vegas. In Vegas they put in the new T-Stat and all is well. We even drove from LA to Sonoma then back to SLC. But I am forsure looking into a better after market T-Stat. phenwick 12-20-2006, 05:28 PM Someone over on chargerforums.com had a thermostat go south and ruined the motor on his SRT.
