Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the 212 Deg. F temperature rating, outlet diameter, bolt hole spacing, and vehicle application before installation. Inspect the mating surface, replace contaminated coolant, and confirm the rubber seal seats evenly in the housing. Because this assembly does not include bolts or mounting hardware, reuse or replace fasteners as required by the vehicle service procedure.
