Way of Subject but I know you guys might be able to help
I have a 92 nissan max. the temp gauge has been all over the place the last few days so I figure that I would change the t-stat. Well tonight on the way home from working it overheated. I am almost 100% positive the t-stat is stuck close, is it possible to remove the t-stat all together until I get a day off to fix it? SORRY!

T-stat
Removing the T-stat and replacing it are the same amount of work. I take it you don't have time to go to the parts store? If you do take it out make sure you get some rain-x Anti-fog
for the windows. You will have no usage of your defrost or your heater. So don't forget to
dress in a Mummy suit,lol.

No by pulling the t-stat it will run hot.
As it does not have time for the water to sit in the rad to cool off before going back into the engine. It will just rush through not giving it enough time to cool properly.
I know Ive done it!
