During my drive to work today my check engine light came on. I installed a 160* t-stat two days ago. Has anyone had their check engine light come on b/c of that? I plan on getting it to the dealer this week. Let me know!

It's not the 160* stat, It's the airaid TB spacer...The engine doesn't know what to do with all that spining air, like a tornado under the hood.:LOL: J/K. I wouldn't think a stat would cause that. You got a tune yet?
I thought that if your engine didn't get up to at least a specific temp in a certain amount of time you got an engine performance SES code.
my 02 silvy with the 4.3 would throw a code with 160, just get it tuned and you will be ok
its the tune, bro... its not warming up quick enough.
Any noticeable power gains with the 160 t-stat?
No, just a check engine light.Quote:

do you know what code it was that set off your SES light?
what did you find out?
if you are going to the dealer under warranty, I would pull the 160 t-stat and the tbs
good luck
ps a custom tune will fix it
