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.

^ You want one?

About to go to scrap, just cover shipping... can get it out 2morrow. :icon_bigg


It's a seperate piece that attache to the head just under the CPS, I believe.

3 bolts (2 studs w/ nuts, one bolt to be technical)

Is this thing functional? No cracks? I think I need it from years 86.5 to 88. I do want it. How much to ship to 15301? My car is an 87 Turbo. If you have the nuts and bolts I'll take those too. You can pm me if you want.
