General Car Chat / Re: So what have you done to your car today?
« on: 17 November 2024, 19:26:53 »Yesterday refitted the transfer pipe and bastid bolt. Just now went out and pressure tested the system and its leaking around the Stat at 5psi.:'(
So need to start the job over again. I m not going to use gasket goo this time if I can help it.
I found what I think is a rubber seal for the Stat housing among my O rings yesterday, but if it turns out not to be the right one, I will probably just buy a whole new housing.
The other problem is going to be the transfer pipe seals.
Are they available separately ? If so where from ? Anyone got a part number for them please ?
Might be worth posting that request up separately I suppose.
Now you mention it I seem to recall an issue like this in the past where some thermostat housings were not compatible with some seals, due to having a deeper milling for the gasket than the seal was thick.
