Yes, you're correct @Wild one about the tuning. I'm running the smallest diameter restrictor now. I'd like the operating temp at 180, and don't want another tuner at this point.

Thank you. It was the smallest one. I tried the middle one first. I just put the 180 in and it seems good. Running 180-190 now.
Which size thermostat restrictor ,if not the smallest one,swap it in and see what happens. A custom tuner should be able to delete your thermostat code.If you had HP you could delete it yourself,but you can't do it yourself with a Diablo

If you have a local tuner who still uses Diablo,they could delete it for you.
That is interesting. I'll keep my eye out for that. We actually don't have tuners at all in our little town. If the thermostat acts ok, I'm probably fine.
