Product Details
The Motorad 7301-170 is an engine coolant thermostat for vehicles that require a 170°F OE-spec temperature setting. Its copper case and wax compound are engineered for fast reaction to coolant temperature changes, while the offset layout and air relief valve support proper cooling-system operation. This part cross-references Four Seasons 73017 for the same application.
Use this thermostat when servicing Mitsubishi 3000GT, Montero, Diamante, and Montero Sport cooling systems, as well as select Nissan Frontier, Pickup, and NV350 Urvan applications and INFINITI Q70 and Q70L models. The Motorad 7301-170 is built to match the original thermostat style and sealing requirements where applicable.
Common Problems This Part Can Address
- Engine running hotter than normal due to a thermostat that is sticking closed
- Delayed coolant circulation after startup
- Temperature fluctuation from worn thermostat internals
- Cooling-system service needs on OE-spec 170°F applications
- Overheating protection needs in demanding driving conditions
Installation Notes
Install with the included rubber seal and verify the housing and sealing surfaces are clean before assembly. Confirm the 170°F specification matches the vehicle’s original thermostat requirement before installation. Follow the vehicle service procedure for coolant refill and air bleeding to help prevent trapped air in the system.
Quality Assurance
Motorad manufactures this Fail-Safe thermostat using OEM-quality materials and OE-supplier standards. It is produced to OEM specifications and processes for consistent fit and temperature control in supported applications.
