T-cut.. thats a good statement of cause and effect, and I would agree with you on your explanations ..... BUT my experience is different .

I have had several cars with 'waxstats' (mini/1100/maxi) and found that whenever the temp rose above normal for a little while ( I tow a small caravan), then the thermostat was bejiggered, and had to be replaced (easy jobs on those cars). It ALWAYS stuck open . My experience anyway. Are modern stats made different ?
