Hey all,
I have been tasked with trying to repair the coolant leaks coming from the vehicle. From the pictures you can see that I need to replace both the thermostat as well as the housing that it is in. I was recommended the Four Seasons thermostat housing from the mechanic and wanted to know if this is one that would also be recommended on here. I am having trouble figuring out the name of the hoses that I would need to replace. The smaller one seems to be around 7 inches in length and the one feeding directly to the housing seems to be around 20 inches, give or take. I was also wondering if the lower part (which I circled) that is connected to both these lower hoses needed to be replaced as the leaks are around where they meet but seem to come from the hoses themselves. I would appreciate any info and/or links that you could provide me. Thank you in advance.
