'89 240 thermostat temp

Hey guys, quick question...

Would you recommend a 180 degree or 195 degree thermostat for my '89 240 DL Wagon?

Sorry for the new thread, but I didn't find the answer through "search."

Wahler makes a 189F°/87C° which I've had good luck with.

It depends where you live. Up in colder climates, I believe that a 92° C was recommended (that's what I use here in northern IL). In hotter climates, the 87° C one is recommended.
