• Improper thermostat seating caused by housing wear
• Corrosion or heat-related damage to the original metal housing
• Service replacement for a damaged housing during cooling-system repair

Installation Notes

Verify the outlet port diameter, mounting hole spacing, and housing neck angle before installation. Use the included gasket and confirm the mating surfaces are clean and flat before assembly. This housing does not include a thermostat, bleeder valve, or bolts, so reuse or source the required related components as needed for the repair.
