Hello All,

I have a 2000 Affinity and just changed the radiator coolant and replace the thermostat. Call Cat with my engine serial number and it called for a 190 degree thermostat.
We departed after completing the change and my normal engine running temp went from 188 degrees to 192.
Question, did Country Coach have a 185 degree thermostat as part of original equipment??

Please let me know your thoughts.

Thank You,

Corky & Kathleen

I would call the CAT tech line (they are very helpful) and ask what temperature you should be running. My C-9 runs at 195 degrees on the flat and hits 108 when climbing. These numbers are from the silverleaf.
