2002 Taurus thermostat housing bolts broke
During a thermostat housing leaking problem, two bolts broke off into the Intake manifold.
1) Drilled both out. 2) Replaced bad thermostat and gasket from www.rockauto.com $4.00 3) Replaced with stainless steel bolts,washers, and lock nuts. $2.00 Caution - Don't forget to use a anti seize compound for screws + bolts. It looks like someone over torque bolts on a thermostat that wasn't centered, causing some coolant leakage & shortage. Last edited by danielsatur; 07-26-2012 at 08:23 PM. |
