So I am sorting out my 109 issues prior to firing that thing up for the first time in 25 years (it's new to me). Many issues are completed and behind me, however I have dug into the cooling system today and glad I did. Surprisingly, it held 6lbs with the pressure tester and some water, but the hoses were harder than rock hard, and needed to come off. By the way, heat guns do a great job of softening up those hoses for easy removal.
It had a flat style thermostat, but no restrictor gasket, heck it didnt even have flow past the stat.
Is this housing the new style that uses the flat stat?

Seems the pic resembles the skirted style tstat. Those stat prices are making me think they are the skirted style (not sure why they would be that expensive)
