Thermostat just decides not to fit anymore?


Recommended Posts

Odd.. I added a new gasket and I have a Aisin water pump with the OEM thermostat so, after I put the gasket on the T-stat I tried to put the cover on and the pointy end of the thermostat was hitting the plastic housing of the t-stat cover.. I don't get it.. I pushed the thermostat in as far as it goes and still would not mate up..

 

Anyone know why?

holy crap haha I saw what the issue was.. too embarrassed to tell but it was the hose clamp for the heater bypass lol I guess that's what happens when you are up for over 10 hours...
