Arrow thermostat vs. fan settings?!?!

i have a 160* hypertech thermo. in my car right now...and the temp gauge barley kisses the 0 on the 160* mark.

my heater blows warmish air, but not enough to turn it off of high, i was wondering if i were to put my stock thermo back in for the winter which i belive is 195* would my fans run constantly because i have them reprogrammed?

thanks for the info.

Program to 180* for the first fan and 190* for the second if you have 160* stat...

I'd just leave the stat in...

It depends on you fan settings. Stock thermostat is 180º. I put my 180º back in for the cold months.

Where did you get a 195º thermostat? If your fans are programmed that low, then your fans are going to be on most or all of the time (even with a 180º).
