Abstract

This invention relates to the thermostat for coolants to switch coolant flow from a first passage to either a second or third passage. The thermostat comprises a bimetallic spring disc which in one position directs the flow to the second passage and when heated to a predetermined temperature by the coolant switches the flow to the third passage. The thermostat is adjustably mounted.
