The original stock 94 thermostat is stuck open. Do I put in a 180deg. or put back in the stock temperture? Also, pull the intake or do it on the car?
Thanks in advance.

The thermostat limits coolant to keep the engine at a stated minimum temperature.
The 190 or 180 rating is the minimum temperature that the engine will operate with that thermostat.
If, for some reason, the engine wants to run hotter than the thermostat temp, there is nothing that the thermostat can do about it.
If your engine always wants to run at 200 in the summer, a 180 thermostat isn't going to change that.
