Can you drive a Subaru without a thermostat?

Driving a Subaru without a thermostat is not advisable. The thermostat regulates engine temperature, and without it, the engine may run too cold or overheat, leading to potential damage. Additionally, you may experience poor fuel efficiency and increased emissions. It's best to replace a faulty thermostat to ensure optimal engine performance and longevity.


Can you run your 1996 cadillac without a thermostat?

Yes, you can technically run a 1996 Cadillac without a thermostat, but it is not recommended. The thermostat helps regulate the engine's operating temperature, and without it, the engine may run cooler than optimal, affecting performance, fuel efficiency, and emissions. Additionally, running without a thermostat can lead to increased wear on engine components and may cause issues with the vehicle's heating system. It's best to replace a faulty thermostat rather than removing it entirely.


Can a car run without a thermostat?

Yes. But running without a thermostat will cause the engine to be overcooled, because the restriction normally provided by the thermostat on the flow of coolant from the radiator around the engine has been removed, so too much coolant will flow and the engine will run too cool. If the engine is not up to temperature it uses more fuel, will produce less power, will wear more, and will not heat the cabin heater as well. So it's not a good idea to run without a thermostat. It is acceptable to run without a thermostat in an emergency, e.g. if the thermostat has failed and doesn't open, causing the engine to overheat. Just make sure you replace it as soon as you can. Running without the thermostat may also trip the check engine light to come on.
