Is this the termostat for a 87 5.0? I was told the t-stat was on the heat outgoing from the block (the one on the top of the block) but the one I am thinking it is has two blue wire coming from it. (I will take pictures if necessary)

Is this the wrong t-stat or am I looking at the wrong place?

 

Anybody? I am kind of in the process of working on it now ...

 

looks right to me.

 

yea it is.. I was looking at the wrong thing. There is two 1/2" (head size) bolts. The problem I am having now is there is a little 2" hose from the waterpump to the thermostat housing which is sooo stiff that I am having trouble removing the t-stat housing....

 

cut it off and get a new one, they're cheap, its called they bypass hose.

 

thanks a lot! I got it off...

now it is up to sealing this with teflon tape or locktite

 

well I couldn't post picture you have to see my other thread... "thread seal"
