FWIW, I personally get about a year out of a thermostat in a Cleveland 
engine. Dunno why but after that long, the things start pulsating and my (accurate) 
temp gauge shows +- 20 degrees of water temp when it should be stable.   The 
thermostat still works but not properly, so I change it- along with the 
antifreeze each Spring. Works for me-J Deryke
