Okay, thanks A LOT! I'll replace the thermostat with an OEM unit. My belts look great but one of them sounds loose. In the handbook it says that the drive/alternator belt has an automatic tensioner so would it be my power steering belt that is squeaking? Both belts look relatively new and have no signs of wear and tear.
