thegreatestben Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Just buy a Genuine one, heaps better than any aftermarket one and for pretty much the same $$. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thegreatestben Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Go on toyspeed and look at the forum sponsors section.

craig_b Posted April 25, 2013 Author Share Posted April 25, 2013 got some part numbers that might be a close fit, suposed to be a 2stage thermostat but even if the 1st stage isnt working will just mean it takes longer to get up to temp, going to burn off to dunedin to pick them up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
