Autozone"s 160 Thermostat

[rb68rr]

Autozone's website shows a 160 thermostat with outside diameter of 1.720 inches. Is this the correct size? Anybody ever use one of these from Autozone? Price was $5.99. Thanks, R.B.

Related: Years ago I bought a larger diameter 160 stat and just trimmed to correct diameter with tin-snips. Worked fine.

On a somewhat related note: NAPA has the wrong part number in their system for the '86-87 VIN 7 160 degree thermostat. Their 180 and 190 stats are correct. I went through a bunch of BS with them after having ordered it online. They assume that you are the idiot and because it's right there on the computer screen then it has to be right.

I wish I had gone to Autozone......

That's what I did. No issues.

Got mine today.

It isn't stainless.

Then again the stocker that came with the car wasn't either.

That's using a magnet for testing, about the same force needed to remove it from each thermostat.

Looked to be well made, haven't tried it with a good lab. thermometer in a pan of water yet.

CST on the box P/N 3846 as posted.
