Default Re: thermostat function

a thermostat does more than just get the engine warm faster, it helps the engine to warm the intake manifold to better vaporize the incoming fuel charge to let the fuel burn more evenly and cleaner for better fuel milage, it stops spark fouling, and carbon deposits on top of pistons, and help stop oil contamination and sludge formation inside the engine
