Yep, poor old thermostats get a bad rap but are one of the simplest devices to test if they are working correctly...I personally think thermostats get a lot of blame for nothing as they rarely actually fail but get replaced on suspicion quite often. But yeah, since you already had a couple of failures it's a good idea and easy job on the old motors. See how it goes after that and keep checking everything for leaks now you are running at full pressure!
One just need a pot, some water in the pot, a bit of wire to suspect the thermostat in the water in the pot, and a thermometer and possibly a veneer gauge to measure the opening.... Oh and an understanding word after you’ve left grease marking in her kitchen
