Just like to say thanks to every one who helped me get my truck running cool again. Special thanks to the guy who said my thermostat could be in backwards. I guess I was so honed in on the timing belt and timing marks lining up that I messed up on the easier part of the job. Thermostat is now installed correctly and truck is running great.

If it makes you feel any better, even the most competent techs make a mistake now and then. For some reason the hands and the mind are not in the same universe at times… 🙂
