Interesting discussion about the vernatherm.  Sounds like it functions
precisely like a car's thermostat, but in the oil cooling system.
Unfortunately, I have never heard of this "thing" before the last few days.
Is it a part of a standard engine?  Where is it located?  Is it in the engine
or is it external?  Who makes it?  Has anyone asked Lancair about the use of
it?  How can I know if my engine has one?  If I don't have one and want one,
where would I get one for an IO360 engine?  Etc.

Also, I need to buy a "Sniffle Valve" for my Lyc IO360.  Does anyone have a
suggestion as to where to get this?  I do have the Lyc part number, and must
admit that I haven't looked for it yet.  I can probably get it through a local
repair shop, but will have to pay through the nose I assume.

Gad, don't we live in a world full of strange jargon?  Vernatherm rather than
thermostat.  Sniffle Valve rather than drain valve.
