Default 89 Cherokee Thermostat Question Help

Is there a very significant difference between a factory stat & the much less costly after market stats? Will a non-factory stat cause it to run hotter?

get MOPAR, nuff said. It's 20 more bucks for a stat that is high quality and low failure rate. Don't skimp, get it.
