My temp gauge barely moves off cold. My heat is warm at best. Car is a 1995 Civic EX sedan. 143k on her.

I am going to replace the thermostat as I assume mine is stuck open.

I have found 170, 180, 195 available opening temps.

What is the factory Honda OEM rating for this car?

Ps: I am in upstate ny, get the extremes of all four seasons here.

Thanks!

just buy one from majestic honda, that way you know it'll be right.
comes out to like 23 bucks after shipping.

 

I cant wait a week for it. I need the car ASAP. It's my beater

 

fairly certain, oem is 195.

however, given the choice, Id get 180 personally. Regardless, its a 10 minute job...and Im also in NY and it was brutal the last few days....Id just go get any they had in stock and change it for heat.

Thermo's in civic's aren't hard to change....so, whats the difference. Get to advanced/pep boys etc grab a stant for 12 bucks and it'll get you through the winter, no problem.
