Default steam line

originally I had the steam line on my 235, later i removed it to relocate the temperature gauge. it then would go way up in teperature and then the thermostat would open and a lot of pressure was let into the top of the radiator sometimes pushing the capo off and overflowing the overflow bottle. i fixed that by drilling a 1/8" hole in the thermostat, no spike in temperature and no boil over. it just rises to operating temperature and stays there.
