I am installing a new water pump on an IH 424 diesel.
The present cooling system has a thermostat bypass. The replacement water pump I got has no bypass. Is there anything special I should do besides plug off the bypass outlet in the thermostat housing?
I am prepared to drill a couple 1/4" or so holes in the thermostat to permit some circulation during warmup.
Thanks for any thoughts on this.
