[DeTomaso] T-Stat action

[detomasoregistry at gmail.com]

I had one in a Honda that failed 'open'.  I noticed that it took forever to warm up,
which was different that it was like "before".  So I changed the T-stat, problem solved.

Most (all?) T-stats have a spring that closes it, pushing against the part
that opens at the temp limit.  So I believe the common error is for the opener to fail.

I often get the 'weird' failures, keeps life interesting.  I think mine had a broken
spring.

CLOSED.

Although I agree with the sentiment, how often would you notice if one
failed to close?
