[QUOTE="Matthew S, post: 742836, member: 58173"] Yes, there has definately been coolant loss and a burning smell that I couldn't find for the past year or so. So when I finally saw this, I came to the conclusion that the leak must be in this area. The encrusted fluid is what caught my eye, and then the rust. So if I order a new Thermostate housing, are we saying that that includes the whole black/grey plastic part from the bolts on the left side of the picture to just past the rusted sensor on the right side of the picture? Has anyone replaced all the radiator hoses on this engine? The upper radiator hose alone is a combination of 3or4 hoses tied together with inline metal tubing where it runs close to the engine block. I guess I am gonna have to spend quite a bit of time at the Napa shop making sure I get all the hoses ordered if I want to replace all coolant hoses. I don't see any info at all on this site about the hoses. Am I missing something? Again, appreciate your help. [/QUOTE]
