supra_ufo Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Following on from my oil leak thread http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?282782-Oil-Leak-help-and-pointers/page5 I fitted a whifbitz 72c thermo and replacing it with a OEM The part number I gave Toyota was 90916-03093 The thermostat on the right was the one that came out of the car, there are differences as you can see Also the one from toyoto has a weird rust type thing going on, the bloke just said "its defo new" I have a gasket for the new one too. What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digsy Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 That stuff around the top of the new 'stat doesn't look right. Looks like the wax is leaking out of the pellet or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Don't forget to change the outer rubber seal, I don't think they come with a new `stat. The little air bleed toggle goes to the top when fitted. Now how many people are saying, "S~@&^, I didn't realize that" ? `Stat looks correct.

If showing a long self time Yes chris I picked up a new seal for it and fitted, I fitted it the same as the previous one looked when i removed. Added a little sealant to fix it in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
