Product Details

The Motorad Integrated Housing Thermostat line focuses on complete thermostat housing assemblies that simplify cooling system service by combining the thermostat and housing into one OE-style component. Part number 736-180 is built with OEM-quality materials and safety standards by an OE supplier, using a copper case and wax compound to react quickly to coolant temperature changes. This makes it a practical replacement for Ford Fiesta, Ford Escape, Ford Fusion, and Ford Transit Connect cooling system repairs where a 180°F thermostat housing assembly is specified.

This part cross-references Four Seasons (e.g., 73680, 86014) for the same application.
