I'm a believer, if it ain't broke leave it alone. The thermostat in my Dodge hemi has been in for 12 years and 335,000 miles. Check the correct way to fill your machine, some ATV's like to have the *** end raised while you refill. I put my AC's rear ends up on jackstands and keep filling till it's full, drive around and recheck a couple times.

Only thermostat I can remember replacing was one that cause overheating in a Sportsman 700. Only reason I replaced it was because the pin that moved when it opens and closes lodged sideways keeping it from opening fully when hot. Could have possibly popped the pin back in place and reused it,but didn't take the chance.Other that freak deal most will last the life of the machine,but people always seemed to question thermostats first whenever they have an over heating problem and not dirty,stopped up radiators,weak or bad fan motors or trapped air in the cooling system.
