looking for a fiesta xflow thermostat housing
I need a new thermostat housing for my xFlow engine, ideally the fiesta one with with a filler cap on the top. Can someone link me to where I can get
one from please? I can't find one on ebay and burton power seems a little steep.
Thanks,

There not that cheap on Ebay either. They do come up at about £15 but you may have to wait a while. Ask me how I know. The first one I saw when
looking was £35 and it was rubbish

ok, cheers.
If I have to get a funky one, should I go for the Burton one?

I used the Burton one - worked as expected, without issues. But that was a long time ago, and they were MUCH cheaper then!

The ones I looked at on the Burton website have a note saying "not for Fiesta" I think the ones they sell are for RWD cars and the outlet
is orientated differently to the Fiesta one.
I think this might fit, from an Escort MK3, also has a take off for an expansion tank.

cheaper here though.

i've recently replaced my original ford item for a burton. original wasnt holding pressure due to worn top lip/mating surface.i paid the silly
price but cap is now sealing nicely.
i would be wary of second hand - ps mines available for £50 if ur interested!
