Well, you haven't proven it to me yet. I'm still calling it one of those "things I've always heard & believed". Like "set battery on earth or concrete & it will such the juice out of it" or "break a mirror, 7 years bad luck", or "cross the path of a black cat & have bad luck". I've spent hundreds of hours studying thermodynamics and heat transfer & paid the tuition for it & speeding up flow through a heat exchanger (radiator) increases , NOT decreases or even remain equal, the heat transfer until you reach astronomical velocities & you won't reach those velocities by removing the thermostat! To do a decent test, you will need to test, remove & test, replace & test. Beyond the technical, I have removed many thermostats & operated without until convenient to replace & never have I seen anything but lower temperatures without one. Never! Furthermore, if a little extra flow is going to result in overheat as you claim, explain these numbers: Ford N tractors@ 16gpm, NAA@19gpm, '55Chev@48gpm, ZR1 Corvette@85gpm, GMC 305ci/V6@135gpm....and you think removing the thermostat will result in overheating!!! I'll be waiting a long time to see you demonstrate that! It is bull!

Today's Featured Article - Timing Your Magneto Ignition Tractor - by Chris Pratt. If you have done major engine work or restored your tractor, chances are you removed the magneto and spark plug wires and eventually reached the point where you had to put it all back together and make it run. On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
