The top hose of the radiator hooks to the themistat housing on the top of the motor. pull the 2 bolts a push firmly downward to seperate the housing from the motor. be sure to get both surfaces clean and smooth before reinstalling the new gasket. i use no2 permitex its non hardening. apply a thin coat to the water oulet an apply the gasket to it, helps hold the gasket in place and gives a better seal

Thermostat needs replaced

To replace a thermostat, you will need at least: 1. A new thermostat 2. Screwdriver 2. Needle-nosed pliers. Depending on the thermostat and location in your home, you may need more. Make sure the new thermostat you are using to replace the old one with is compatible to your 110-volt housing circuitry. Always turn off the electrical power to the home thermostat at the power panel or circuit breaker box.--------------------------------------------------------------------------
