There has been a lot of discussion about which thermostat to use, which one are you using and where in America do you live? I'm putting in a e-fan and want to do the thermostat at the same time but having a tough time making up my mind (160 or 170) because I live in south Florida.

 

I have heard that the 160 is better for us, but Im sure the 170 will also do plenty of good if you want to go that rout

 

I have heard that in some cases a 160 will set a MIL with an undertemp code. I think I have decided to go with a 170.

 

Been running a 160 for a long time now and it is a noticable difference and it never has coded me for undertemp,you still get full heat in the winter too

 

160, works great for me, I am in Fort Myers Florida. Summers are in the low 90's and winter's in the low 60's, brrrr that's cold.

I sell both the 160 and the 170 therms. If you are running an electric fan kit I would suggest the 160.

FRANK22, thanks for the info, I don't think I will ever need to use the heater but it good to know that it's working for you!

Just ordered the 160... Thanks Jeff

 

160* for over a year with no problems.

 

Dan, my mom has a place in marco island. Was thinkin of takin a road trip there in the L from Chicago. Jeff

 

why is that you recommend a 160 for ppl with an e-fan?

 

With the electric fan it will still allow the truck to warm up durring every day driving but at the track the 160 thermostat will keep the truck cooler.
