How? The T-stat is a physical piece that operates just as any other T-stat does, the water pumps are physically driven... Does the ECU try to run a lean burn to raise the temps or what? confused From what I've seen on the scanner, the lower water temps actually hit a rich table, not a lean one...

I'm really interested in this one since my 3 liter has been a bit warm with these hot temps the past week and I was thinking of a cooler stat...
