Detailed Description

Motorad CH3043 is an engine coolant thermostat housing designed for vehicles that use a water outlet with housing in the cooling circuit. The steel construction helps provide the rigidity needed in demanding coolant environments, while the 1.3 inch outlet diameter supports proper coolant flow through the thermostat housing assembly. This part is a fit for 1993-1995 Chevrolet Camaro and 1993-1995 Pontiac Firebird models, making it a focused replacement for common cooling system service on these platforms. This part cross-references Dorman OE Solutions (e.g., 902-2043) for the same application.

Common Repair Uses

• Replacing a leaking or corroded thermostat housing
• Restoring proper coolant routing at the engine coolant water outlet
• Addressing coolant seepage around the housing mounting surface
• Repairing a damaged outlet neck or housing flange
• Servicing cooling system components on Camaro and Firebird applications

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the outlet diameter, mounting hole count, and housing style before installation. This housing does not include a gasket or seal, and bolts are not included, so reuse or replace related sealing components as needed during service. Clean the mating surfaces thoroughly and inspect the thermostat and adjacent coolant hoses before reassembly.
