Zetec - thermostat housing bolts
Good morning,
Can anybody tell me the the thread size and length of these? I am trying to pu my engine back together and appear to have mislaid these.......
Thanks in advance,
IanM

I have recently replaced mine and have fitted M8 x 70. I have very tight clearance between my thermostat housing and chassis member and M8 x 70 just
fits. It gives about 1.3xD engagement which is a bit on the cheeky side. So I'd recommend going for M8 x 75 if you have the clearance.
