    4jh4e with strange running temp issue, too cold

    I just replaced the exhaust manifold and since I had it all apart I replaced the thermostat too. The housing was kind of corroded so I went ahead and got a new one. The new one is a much lighter shade of grey. I don't have temp gauges so we always check the engine temp at the thermostat...
