Re: 1967 Mustang Coupe Build (Electra)

Well started taking things apart to replace the thermostat only to find that the housing was jacked up. It was so rusted and nasty I had to replace it as well as the water pump hose..So new 180 degree thermostat, new housing, new gasket. and new permatex, So far so good i drove it for about 10 minutes and let it idle for about 25 and it never even made it to halfway on the temperature gauge. It kinda cold though so im not certain its fixed, just need to take it for a drive sometime soon and see how she does. Only thing is its leaking out of the temp sending unit screw that on the new housing..I should of rethought it and put Teflon tape on it but i wasn't thinking about it. Ill do that here soon, its barely leaking
