henga12 Posted September 1, 2014 Report Posted September 1, 2014 I pulled off the thermostat housing and it wasn't there, is there another part I have to pull off, it was getting dark when I was doing it so I couldn't tell properly Quote
B.L.Z.BUB Posted September 1, 2014 Report Posted September 1, 2014 It should be in the thermostat housing but someone could have removed it. Quote
Hiro Protagonist Posted September 1, 2014 Report Posted September 1, 2014 Most likely removed as a (misguided) attempt to stop overheating. Quote
henga12 Posted September 1, 2014 Author Report Posted September 1, 2014 I put one back in, was this a bad idea? I havent driven it yet.. Quote
ke70dave Posted September 1, 2014 Report Posted September 1, 2014 Nope good idea, but if the previous owner took it out because it was overheating then there might be something else going on with the coolant system. Quote
henga12 Posted September 2, 2014 Author Report Posted September 2, 2014 I'm 80% sure it's a headgasket but planning on driving it til it carcs it then sending it to wreckers. Does anyone happen to know where I can get thermostat housing bolts? I don't want to put threaded ones back in Quote
smaccas1411 Posted July 9, 2016 Report Posted July 9, 2016 Hey mate the housing attaches to the head but the thermostat is under the inlet pope. Two small 10mm bolts hold it in. Quote
