I can't seem to find the gasket on Autozone's website. And NAPA is giving me issues finding Land Rover since idk if it's a light or medium duty truck..

Just kidding, just saw the tech section

At Orielly's web site, the oem version (195F) fits 3376 Chevys as well. One of those is a 1994 Blazer, 350 engine.

Gasket should be or cross to Fel-Pro 12994, may have an extra bolt hole, don't worry

At Autozone, Part Number: 15359 for the 195 stat. They will also have a 180.

Hello all I"m about to buy my 2nd rover 03' disco se7
I'm pretty inclined to do most of all of my own work-
This truck got hot yesterday after running about an hour got to red as I parked it, turned on heat temp came down then I shut it down- came back today and checked Upper and lower hoses with IR gun upper is 189 lower was 154
Could my stat be stuck partially closed not allowing
Cooled air to get through block, also noticed at 45 mph
After slamming on brakes ABS did not activate
No warning lights or anything else indicating fault-
Please advise
Thanks
Tim
I'm new on here so go easy and limit sarcasm

Better to start your own thread topic rather than clutter someone else's with your issues. You will get more support that way.

Please start a new thread if possible, you have a serious overheating issue and should not be driving the truck without repairs.

It will only do that a couple of more times before it gets really bad and costly if not already.

Hello Mike,
Can you help me with a couple of issues on a Rover I'm about to buy?
I'm not sure how to post a NEW message as I junked up another person thread yesterday by tagging along on it,

New to the forum world,

Thanks,

Thanks, trying to figure out how to post a new reply I'm new to forums. Truck has not been driven since it got hot, it has been started ud, check from compression, etc, looks like stat was stuck partially closed and there was air in system according to mechanic, now if I can start a new thread I have a couple of other questions,

Thanks,
Tim
