Any way of checking? Is this a "at home" fix?
#1
Drain the engine coolant so that it falls below the thermostat level by opening the drain plug at the bottom of the radiator and draining it into a catch pan.
#2
Follow the upper radiator hose to the thermostat housing, remove the clamp with a screwdriver then pull the hose away from the thermostat housing.
#3
Remove the thermostat housing with a socket, extension and ratchet.
#4
Clean the old gasket off the thermostat housing and the engine with a scraper, using a light back and forth motion.
#5
Insert the new thermostat with its spring going into the engine.
#6
Position the new thermostat gasket onto the motor then secure the thermostat cover on top.
#7
Tighten the thermostat housing bolts snugly with the socket and ratchet. Do not over-tighten them or you will strip the threads.
#8
Reattach the upper radiator hose onto the thermostat housing and tighten the clamp with the screwdriver. Pour coolant into the coolant reservoir.
#9
Start the engine and check for leaks.

Tried a bunch of beers at Oktoberfest at National Harbor. I prefer wheat beers and they had one called Erdingers from Germany that was awesome.

I'm looking for a good set of tires. The sizes are;
225/45R18 (Front)
245/45R18 (Rear)
I'm looking for a decent price, all season sport tire. I'll give up a little grip for better tread wear. So far the front runner for me is the Bridgestone Potenza RE 960AS Pole Position.
Seems to be a well reviewed tire. Just checking in here for an expert opinion.

I want a link to the source because this seems odd. I don't support that at home ... wasn't Steve Spurrier the last person to make that change? :steelersu

LavarLeap has come through in the past on some inside info. I hope this is true, I think it would look pretty nifty.

of course, if you REALLY never wnat the breaker to blow again, just replace it with a wrench........
Just a DIY tip here, but turn the main power off BEFORE inserting wrench.

When i run too many appliances in my house at the same time, the circuit breaker blows. How do i keep that from happening?
You could buy a higher amperage breaker, but risk an electrical fire. Most times the breaker is there to keep the wire from overheating and causing a fire.
If you have any electrician buddies they could tell you how much your circuit could really handle safely. Then go from there.
