To any one who has replaced their thermostat with another one that uses the same stock o-ring, did you replace the o-ring or reuse it?

I'd normally replace any O-rings once they have been in place and compressed for longer then a short while but I am wondering what you guys do/did?

I just had eye surgery and can't really drive to get a new one atm but I want to get this thing done.

Replace or reuse the o ring?

Thanks!

The new thermostat should come with an o ring. Use the new one.

if the new one did not come with one and the old one is not heat deformed, just re-use the old one.

I have the Reische and it did come with one. But I would contact Livernois and tell them that it didn't come with one, and have them send one to you.
