what replacement thermostat brand and temp. rating should I put in my 93 IC turbo D. Albany Dodge wants $74.00. Sorry, no sig. or photos yet.....

 

Try NAPA for the correct replacement # for you application.

 

Go directly to Cummins - OEM quality without the Dodge markup.

I agree with Rusty

 

Thanks for the advice!

 

Cummins parts only. I like NAPA for gasser parts, but not for the B series. I feel NAPA is above any other parts chain fwiw. BTW, NAPA t-stats are known junk, stay clear.

 

Cummins all the way when i comes to t stats!

 

well, i went with the 180degree stat from napa about 2 months ago. i have an aftermarket gauge and it doesn't swing. unloaded my water temps are right at 180-185. i don't claim to know a lot on the subject, i had to get the stat in that morning and local cummins place is 40min away. when i replace i will probably go with a cummins stat.

 

Apparently NAPA feels it's above any other parts chain too! I can't even get competitive pricing out of them anywhere locally, like they really don't want my business? Seems they cater to the local professional shops that just pass on the scalper prices to their customers. Too bad...

 

If you can't get to Cummins, make sure it's built with the bi-pass. Should be a piece of brass, like a loose rivet in the center.

 

i think i paid less than $7 for my 180 stat at napa... i agree though most of the stuff is through the roof.
