Hi there,
Can anyone help with a question....The motor factors cannot agree which thermostat i need for my 1.8D 2002 Escort Van.Something about 2 types and different opening temperatures i dont want to go to Ford but will if need be.

Any ideas

Thanks

 

Go with the lower temperature type it just opens earlier, or strip your one out and read it off yours, there normally stamped

 

Thanks for the reply....When i got the van the heater never got hot also the top hose stayed cold ? The old thermostat has no markings on. Its a tricky one i may go to FOrd for this.

 

sounds like you have got an airlock .also flush the rad out when you change the thermostat mate

 

Nothing tricky, just put the lower temperature one in
