I have the in line Meziere housing plus 90 degree stat and my car warms up fine, reaching approx 100 before reducing to about 87 and then toggling between the 2
Prior to that i wasn't getting over 75 and that was causing FBH (Fuel burning heater.) issues as it wasn't turning off because the coolant wasn't getting hot enough

Planning is an unnatural process, much better to just get on with things, that way failure comes as a complete surprise instead of being preceeded by a period of worry and doubt

I fitted the in-line stat 4 weeks ago, temp gauge climbs up to half way nice and quick and i am getting a few more miles to the gallon. Wish i did it sooner.
