Replacing a thermostat

[Mrcoke]

My machine , CSS 64 needs a new thermostat.  I bought one.  Had to cut the wires off the old one. Crimped leads to the wire.  The question is how do you install the coil?  I broke the first one trying to wrap the wire to fit into the pipe. I just ordered a new one that has the bulb to insert into the tube.  Anyone know the trick to these things??

If your bulb does not fit the tube in the coil you might want to check Soda jerk works or Funtronics for the correct t-stat. They have one with the coil preformed at the end of the capillary tube.
