Hello again. Anyone know if it's a big deal to replace the Thermostat & 
Fan Swtich on an '87 5KCS TQW? I think this will help my new increased 
temp situation. Thanks in advance.

Have you seen where the thermostat is??  You might have to pull your power
steering pump, which would mean a big pento$in mess, just to get at the
bolts which hold the housing to the block.

I could be wrong though...anyone ever R&Red it w/o removing the pump?

Fan switch might be a PITA also.  On a 90, It's tucked away quite nicely
near the bottom of the radiator; you have to pull the fan motor and shroud
to even see it.  I'm not sure about a 5kcs...
