I have a v-6 mitsubishi that burst a hose. It was brought home and was smoking hot. After forty minutes of trying, I can't get any water into the block. All the engine wants to do is get hot. Do thermostats get ruined after being subjected to high heat--no coolant situations?

Real easy to ruin engine thermostat?

As the record of this thread will clearly show, I never made anything remotely similar to such a claim.

And you REMAIN an indisputable dilettante moron for considering a 3rd party patch to proprietary, closed source software

As I've stated before, I could care less whether someone of your incompetent ilk either reads or responds to my posts.

I continue to be endlessly amused by (always the same) poseurs who respond by tantamount to parroting others remarks (in an unattributed fashion), in the same thread, as though they contribute (or could) an original idea.
