Well I looked it up in my AutoZone, Orilly, no luck. Its a walk alright.... ha

Hahaha, nice, Good grab.

after doing some research, I think its called a Thermostat O-Ring.
No luck with it at my Orielly, or AutoZ.

Mine came with it on the thermostat when I get my 195* from O'Reilly, but didn't when i got my 180*. I had the option of buying it separately though.

Darn, I didnt even notice this moved onto another page (SubwayGirl got my double post ha)

But but but, 12 whole dollars, when I just want the ring .
That seems somewhat silly ?

they are all sold individually. t stat is one box, t stat gasket in a clear bag, same for the t stat o ring.

If you can wait to do the flush, buy it off RockAuto.

you kill me, why pay shipping on a 2 dollar part?

The 5% will get rid of that. Buy other stuff OP.

no! you buy all your expensive stuff on line, and buy the little crap local.

you could buy on line at advance auto, add a code and pick up local. you can buy coolant and oil on line too. as long as its in store pick up.

order and go pick it up 30 minutes later, its on the counter waiting for you most of the time.
