That is why I installed the Newcomer Racing billet thermostat housing. It is worth the money.

Permatex is a LOT cheaper, and accomplishes the same thing. Just sayin'
I didn’t even know that was an option! That’s a nice piece of work.
Cleaning day today…. Finally got around to cleaning the vent pipe under the cowl… used my leaf blower, vacuum cleaner and an old wire coat hanger…. Quite a bit of crap came out underneath which explains the wet feet when it downpours.View attachment 589559View attachment 589558
Then disconnected the drivers seatbelt to give it a really good clean so it will retract better… fingers crossed this worksView attachment 589560
A mans gotta do what a mans gotta do.
It is very well made and eliminates the worry of warping. Can't go wrong with quality billet aluminum.
Heck yea, just slap a lot of Permatex under a warped housing and your good.
I went through 3 housings in as many months. My time and buying antifreeze is worth something.
Took advantage of the 66 degree weather & washed my jeep.
It looks like they do. I can't say for sure though. The inside is much smoother and has less rough edges.
Against my own better judgement, I loaded up the parts shotgun and blasted away at my "no start" issue that began 2 weeks ago. New battery from Costco and new starter from Rockauto.com have NOT solved the no start. When I turn the key to the first position, I get power to everything (lights, climate, etc). Past that to try and start, nothing. No click of solenoid, no nothing. I'm thinking bad ground at this point, but the weather has been keeping me from chasing this down:
Luckily, I have the truck as a backup. Not as fun to drive, but actually starts!

Is that a block heater? Or battery maintainer
Battery maintainer (Noco genius 2D). Thankfully, it doesn't get cold enough to need a block heater in my part of the Mitten.
Block heater is on driver side back towards the firewall.
