Usually an owner will remove one because of an overheat problem.........it does remove a slight restriction as compared to having the 165 degree stat at wide open. So it might run a little cooler for a while but the main cause of overheat will catch up sooner or later. Might be time to do a good chemical flush like rydlyme or other in a closed loop flush.
