synistershadows Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 anyone know about how much a T-Stat for a 3.4L is?? and where it is located and how hard it would be to replace?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOHCRagtopguy Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 Cost: No more than 10 bucks. Location: Follow your upper radiator hose to the intake manifold. PIA Factor: Not too bad, about a 6 on a scale of 1-10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euro Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 do they make colder T-stats for the 3.4? Doesn't Ben make them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slick Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 Yes, they are available in colder temps. T-stats aren't made per application, but per size to fit the housing. As far as doing it is concerned, I personally would give it a 1 out of 10, because it's simple to do. Be sure to bleed afterwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremy Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 I have to agree with chris....1/10 in difficulty.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IRONDOG442 Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 I say two out of ten just to be different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOHCRagtopguy Posted June 27, 2007 Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 Only reason I gave it a 6 is because of the ears on the one part that goes to the coolant line. That can be a pain in the butt. Other than that it is easy. But you don't know what kind of mechanical prowess this guy has, he could be a rookie wrench spinner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chadz34 Posted June 27, 2007 Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 Cost: No more than 10 bucks. Location: Follow your upper radiator hose to the intake manifold. PIA Factor: Not too bad, about a 6 on a scale of 1-10. If I can do it, anyone can haha I'd rate it a 4 or 5 though. I got a 180 stat as opposed to 195. DOn't go too cold or you won't get a closed loop idle and you will be hard on the engine parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
