Thermostat for 1958 HI 240 Utility

Posted by Pibou on October 21, 2004 at 19:17:46 from (142.177.107.183):

I had to change the top hose on the radiator of my 1958 International 240 utility tractor and found the thermostat laying inside the hose next to the radiator opening. I decided to test it in some boiling water. It opened but did not close. I figured I should get a new one , just to be sure.Don't know how long it may have moved there.

I would like to know if I can find a suitable replacement from a car dealer or part store? What make, year and model may be used as replacement, if it is at all possible. What working temperature should I be looking for? I'm also in the process of changing the temp gauge and sensor as it is not working anymore. What is the thread size for the sensor?
Thanks in advance for any help.
