Toyota thermostats are generally pretty good, but I had one collapse in my 2nd crown. Wife phoned me at work, and said "sounds like someone inside the engine is trying to get out" Thermostat had collapsed and the water was boiling in the block. It cost me an engine rebuild, as the high temps in the engine caused the piston rings to lose their tension. Massive blow by!



regards Chuck.
