I am getting ready to change the coolant and thermostat on my 03 1300. While I have the plastic off is there anything else I should change out or check at 50K miles?
I have all the plastic off and I have a factory service manual, but I cannot locate the thermostat housing. Anybody got a pic on where to find it?
Remove the radiator and the cross member that connects the left and right frame down members. The T stat is behind that cross member in the Vee of the cylinders. You can follow the large radiator hose from the left side of the radiator to the T-stat housing as well. If you send me an email I'll send you a tutorial that is easy to use for this job. PM me.I have all the plastic off and I have a factory service manual, but I cannot locate the thermostat housing. Anybody got a pic on where to find it?
And agree on bleeding the check valve, as well as all the calipers since the plastic is off. Otherwise, all I did was clean out all the dead butterflies and bees.
