I had a coolant leak and found that BOTH bolts on my thermostat housing were loose and stripped. Old car (87) - many mechanics plus myself have loosened and tightened that for the past 10 years, so what do I expect?
I tried to fix this but there are other cracks on the unit. Is this part of the engine or a separate part? This is not the little thermostat housing, but where it connects to - looks like it's aluminum.
This thing needs seriously replaced. I tried to helicoil it, but that was a failure too.
