Swapped thermostat in the SS

Had a code and finally got around to swapping it. Definitely one of the easiest part swaps I've done lol.

Gasket was chewed up and it had an extra gasket stuck in the spring...

Top bar is bent. New thermostat has a flat bar. I'm assuming it SUPER stuck open? Don't have a lot of experience with thermostats.

I hope you followed our advice and got ACDelco 131-158. We have said it enough that you should have seen it.
That is the ONLY one you should use. Others "fit", but either have that gasket or don't operate the way the computer expects.
