You can actually test the thermostat by placing it in boiling water and seeing if it opens, but hell if you already took it out, pay 6 bucks for one and seal. Btw you ride bmx i see, you said you were from the North east but your avaitor is from dirtwood? Let me know if you ever come back to texas, im live damn near close to austin and san antonio and have a 86 redtop and my parents have their 89 NA.

Whoa, nope sure didnt. Thats a shame, any reasoning behind it? I know bussiness was hard for that place soemtimes, and free parks are starting to dominate the world. Well quick question how did you transport your bike on your mk1? I REFUSE to do another trunk mount bike rack...
