    Is this thermostat ok?

    Hey Guys,

    I bought a new thermostat for my RB30.
    The thermostat is suppose to start open at 76 celsius.
    I'm replacing the thermostat because the old one is opening too early(around 64 degrees or so) & engine's running temperature(fully warmed up) doesn't go any higher than 70 degrees or so.
    I did the hot water bottle test with a temperature gauge and the new one's opening at around 84 celsius
    instead of 76 degrees.
    I'm wondering whether now I have different kind of problem with this new thermostat 'cos it starts opening bit later than it suppose to?

    Thanx
