Yes, your right. Thanks for pointing that out. You can just barley see it stamped on the side of thermostat. I just went in garage and grabbed one of my old ones from Napa. Looks like they have change to different suppliers. Anything that was any good is gone.. Dam.
These have been the ones I've always used. Made in USA. Just found this. MotoRad (Stant was acquired by MotoRad) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KCS95D9FOPY
