P0128 - Replace with stock or Intense?
Well, on and off for two weeks now I'm throwing a SES light, due to error code P0128. It'* the stock thermostat on the car now, so my question is...
Should I replace it with a stock sensor (everyone on the car is stock as of right now), or should I replace it with an Intense thermostat :?:

That'* a familiar code.
Haven't had it since Intense removed it from my PCM.....forever. :P
Don't worry, it doesn't do anything.....only warns you in case your stock stat is sticking open.

You can buy a cheap code clearing device from a local auto supply store like I did to clear annoying things like that.
It will activate the SES light on the second occurance of that fault every time.

If it'* throwing a code with your stock stat, it means that your stock stat is hooped and does need to be changed.
I had not problems with a 180 Intense stat throwing the code.
It was only after I drilled a couple more holes in it.
Then when I went to the 160 stat I had the code disabled.
I don't worry about mileage because I am fuel foolish and care more about the power.
