Question

Could anyone please tell me or point me to a diagram/picture where I can find the Thermostat on a MY94 WRX.

Found that the fans keep cutting in and the top hose in red hot and the bottom hose is only warmish.

Thanxs

Cool

Follow the bottom pipe from the Rad back to the enginge, it connects to a right angle piece which bolts to the enginge. Undo that piece and inside is the thermostat. You will have to get under the car to undo the lower bolt, and you'll need a 10mm wrench. I did mine at the weekend, make sure you get the correct replacement. Mylocal factors assurem me I had the correct one, when I took the old one out, they're where eve similar. I suggest talking to Graham Goode Racing. Excellen service. Hopethis helps

Thanks

I know exactly where you mean
Have had most of the engine out but never noticed the thermostat.

Thanks again

I got a replacement QH stat for my car and when I tried to fit it I found that it was too small . I tested the old stat in a saucepan of hot water on the cooker and found it was working ok so I put it back in .
