CEL: P0128... Add to Predator?

[grayforge]

Since it's pretty common for people who update their thermostats to a lower temp one to get the OBD2 code P0128, how about either automatically turning on the fix for this whenever the fan temps are lowered or make it a user modifiable parameter in the Predator? Ditto with the O2 sensor codes.

Yeah, I imagine the EPA weenies' eyebrows would raise, but you're providing a tool. It's up to the buyer to use it legally. For Race Use only, and all.

Thanks!

Not an option, EPA had us remove the O2 disable options years ago...

That really sucks as we here in Canada do not have the EPA

I don't see why people are all of a sudden having this problem. I had 180° thermostats in both my SRT8s for years and they never threw this code. This has to be because of the Jet T-Stat. They charge 150% more then NAPA, yet the NAPAs work fine and the Jets don't. Does anyone else see a problem with that, and the fact that people still buy their POS?

I bought mine from Lingenfelter engineering and I have never thrown a code in 4 years.

All 5.7 and 6.1 HEMI's part number = L310096205 180F

NAPA Part number THM165 is their 180° T-Stat for the 5.7 and 6.1 Hemis and its only like $12 in the stores and $16.49 on the web.

NAPA Canada has no such part number (their useless)! I tried and tried for 3 days to find one and settled on the Lingenfelter. NAPA USA will not ship to Canada either... the morons!!

I use the NAPA Part 165 and have had no problems in over 2.5 years.

For people who are not having problems... I wonder if your temps are just not as low as those who are. We all might be right near the threshold of throwing the code. Some may be a degree or too above, some below.

just got my first cel this week for t-stat. guess its the cooler weather. using jet also. when I went to napa, they said they didn't have a 180 stat. wish I had the part # then to give them. anyway, got a reply from mikel about sending tune to erase the code. ( just have to figure out how to do this )
