By the way, if you're rebuilding t-stats? You may want to look at rebuilding the t-stat in the engine. It uses the same regulator. Check out this useful post from burgermeister Frank.

KTL - Thanks for your response. Not rebuilding the engine T-stat as not taking engine out just yet. I'll be doing a full overhaul on that starting in the fall. I am trying to get everything else sorted before I pop out the engine for now.
Ok so I don't need to get (the bottom one):
Pelican Parts - Product Information: 930-107-076-00-OEM
as I assume that never goes bad;
but I should get (the side one):
Pelican Parts - Product Information: 930-107-155-00-M322
and the seal for it:
Pelican Parts - Product Information: 900-123-136-30-OEM
So I shouldn't disassemble the bottom one to clean either? or should I still disassemble it and put a new seal on it?
Thanks again!
