If you have cooking thermometer, you can test the thermostat in a pot of water. If it's open by 180 degrees F, it's good.

I have a Mishimoto thermostat and it throws a CEL for opening up at a lower temp (150) vs 174 so the CEL if it indiacates thermostat opening at lower temp is normal since the thermostat is opening sooner than it should
