Hi all,
I recently redid some of the radiator hoses on our coach and thought I might as well replace the thermostat since I had the water outlet off. I wasn't sure how old it was or if it had ever been replaced. Well, I ended up putting on a regular Stant thermostat and read this morning that we should only be using the Robertshaw thermostat. So I'll have to get back in there ASAP and get the Stant out of there. The question is, I see there is a 195 and a 180 Robertshaw, and I also see it is very hard to find the original ones and not the Chinese knockoffs (Mr. Gasket). It looks like this site has the original Robertshaw ones:

So I'm thinking of trying one of these out. The one we had in our coach was a 195. Should I be looking at a 180 instead?
Just wondering why we have the choice of two different ones. I searched but didn't see any discussion on this.
Thanks in advance.
