Randy,
 
The vernatherm can be tested in water.  It should start extending at about 140* F and reach full extension of 0.25" at 180*.  This information from Lycoming engineer.  FYI, I did have a new one that did not meet those spec's and I exchanged for another that did fully extend.  Check the surface of your existing vernatherm, you should see a complete "ring" where it has been seating.  There is a tool, (which I've not used), for dressing the seat.
