[QUOTE="dpointt, post: 343620, member: 2661"] dont worry abt it... it seems tt almost all E30 here are using the same thermostat that gives only 1/4 mark reading as the climate here i hotter, thus the adjustment has been made! If you use the actual original ones, the temperature can show in the middle mark but will cross it when u turn on your ignition key without the engine started.... thus may cause a panic, but its just 3/4 reading tt will be back to normal once the engine and coolant started flowing so the 1/4 thermostat is to prevent the reading to cross 1/2 at all time though I dont really know if the thermostat is above 3/4 will the engine be able to get started? don bother to know as I am not using this thermostat!!! hope this helps....
