My only experience with ECP thermostats is that they don't supply you with the correct seal. Its just an O ring. Seen it on two occasions.

I ended up going over to peugeot and just buying the seal for pennies.

I just tested (what I believe) the original 'stat in a pan of boiling water and it opened fine so just reused with a new seal.
