I got around to getting all the dexcool out of the my disco. Ive been chasing a couple water leaks and figured I'd replace the motorad tstat currently in there. I think it was leaking and the hose that connects to the the heater core at the top of the engine. Whats a good tstat to replace the motorad one? I saw this one on ebay:
You can get two 180F’s from Lucky8 if I’m not mistaken. OEM grey 180F & the black 180F by britpart. I’ve used several of the britpart units with great success.
I'm going for the black britpart one on the next change. 1/3 the price, and slightly colder opening temp. I've had a brand new OEM grey be stuck, and heard of a few others.
Thanks all for the suggestions - purchased the 180 britpart one from lucky8 mainly because of price. I might need to replace the o-ring on that manifold outlet pipe too. I've been finding that anywhere I see crystalized dexcool there probably is a leak.
