today

Hi..  Well, dad Called and emailed, he wants to help me put the new thermostat on, he says he knows I can't afford a Machanic,for this.  I looked at the Dealer Website and saw the part, Yeah, the RIGHT one,.. I hope they have it in stock I will call them tomarrow,.. I don't know why the Auto parts store does not carry this RIGHT part, it has a Lip with Groves so it can Lock into the Housing,..so when you turn it sideways it won't Fall Out of place,...  WE Mutilated the other part dad thinks I should return it and make them take it back, Im going to forget about it,. was 6.00 and not worth my effort I feel,. I bet the RIGHT part from the dealer though will be more expensive,... Im still at a Loss why the auto parts store sells me the Wrong part and says it's the Right one,.. and does not carry the Right one,...   Well, I work in a few hours from now, and it's going to be a Long night, they put me in the backroom this time,.. I need the hours though, Missed 2 big stores,.. so won't complain...will have to just do it, and make it through somehow,... I hope the old thermostat will not give me troubles tonight, Im not  working far from home so I think Ill be ok,.. the dealer is farther I will call first to see if they have the part,..  Well, have a great day,...  Michael
