How to get to the thermostat?? - dspithaler@... - 04-27-2005 11:49
Bill I replaced mine a year ago in my 3208 89SP I didn't have any
bolts that I couldn't make. Mine only had one & it is called a regulator & not
a
thermostat. I don't know why. My old one was a 183 degree & the Cat dealer
that I bought the new one from said it should be a 187 degree. What degree is
yours. Dinnerbell Garage is sure a good one to live close to. Walt inspected
my truck today. One done 5 more to go.

How to get to the thermostat?? - pattypape - 04-27-2005 14:59
Hi Everyone,
Going to do some work on the cooling system to repair weeping hose
leaks.
When the outside temps get cold the silicone hoses want to drop.
(sounds like me)
There are no leaks when the engine is hot.
So, I thought I would also replace the thermostat.
Months ago there were postings about replacing the thermostat on the
3208.
It referred to the mouting studs and how to access the mounting bolts
and nuts.
Does anyone remember how many of the bolts had a nut attached in the
rear? And which were treaded into the block??
I think, there are three hex heads on the front casting.
I don't want to remove a bolt and not be able to tighten it back up.
