popped the old thermostat off, tried to put the new one in the same way...wouldn't fit onto the engine. turns out the last guy who worked on this car put in the thermostat BACKWARDS, crushing the thermostat shell on the radiator side.

no wonder the car takes forever to warm up, eh.

oh, now with the new radiator my temp gauge needle stays at 9:30 all the time. do i need to check the temp sensor or it doesn't matter?
