Now not so much.
Strangely, I had to buy 3 thermostats (diesel inline thermostat mod) before I found one that worked as it should, each of the failed ones heated to only 68/70 on the IPK, the third one worked as it should, 88 degrees.

First two were Gates ones from a motor factor, third one was a Borg & Beck one.
Chinesium everywhere now.
