Default no themostat???????

i was just wondering. i just brought a new themostat and is already in.
but i live in florida where is never seems to get cold.
would i cause damage if i ran without a themostat?
i think i read that my sensors would maybe flip out.

btw i did a search already and came up with nothing.

If you did it would take longer too warm up and I dont think it good for you motor to be running cold all the time, im just doing it so I dont overheat. Are you having overheating issues as well? If not I would leave it alone

actually I read you cant really hurt anything but your gas mileage and you could get cold enough for vtec not to work since its not at optimal temp.

as with most people here are saying - i wouldn't leave it out just for the sake of leaving it out. even if it's overheating. your engine needs it to regulate it's tempurature.
