After warmup.Temperature gauge drops when heat is turned on and then stalls.
What is your question?
Bought a 2006 adventurer 22" motorhome w v10 2006 super duty 350 gas engine. When I drove it home the temperature gauge barely got off cold. I changed the thermostat 180' temp rating. Started up and warmed the engine for 30 min yesterday and the temp gauge read almost half warm. When I turned on the heat in the dash the temp gauge bottomed out and 30 sec later the engine stalled. What might couse this?

Hello, the specification for a thermostat for this engine is that it should start to open between 181 and 189 degrees and be fully open at 210 degrees. Obtain and install a proper Ford thermostat for this engine before testing further to ensure you have the proper part for the vehicle. I'm not sure how to explain the engine stall; it very likely is not related to temperature, unless you are also experiencing overheating -- which does not appear to be the case.
