It seems to work pretty well. The erratic water temperature swings are gone but it doesn't seem to warm up as much as it did before but I haven't taken it on a really long drive.

A retired friend of mine that works on restoring brass lanterns and old cash registers can polish it up but he couldn't do it yesterday. R&R for polishing will be one of the winter projects.

I'd like to see the milling machine that makes these kinds of parts.

Thanks David!
Well, the observation that the erratic temp swings were fixed was premature.. It's still happening.
