RE: Thermostat stuck open?
Tech just informed me that a stuck open thermostat will cause your vehicle to overheat at highway speeds because the coolant travels through the rad too fast and doesn't get cooled enough. Your temp gauge will go up very slowly... It's really easy to pull the thermo, on top of the engine on the passenger side, right in the middle... Make sure you have a star tool! Make sure you get it changed, because I read that another 850 driver blew his heater core from the thermo being bad.
