I finally looked at the thermostatic actuator. It looks like its been
disabled. The copper tubing is missing from the part that bolts onto
the intake manifold to the FI pump.

I didn't look under the air filter at the FI pump to see if it had the
'dummy' actuator, tho.

So, should I replace it?

Another question, now. And I appreciate your patience with me.

When I change the oil, how many quarts/liters should I add. I suspect
the oil dip stick is not the original. I've added what the book says
(11.6 pints) but the dip stick still says its low.

Thanks again.
