3 port thermostat with 79°C opening temperature. This is a recommended lower temperature version of the type originally fitted to Scorpion and early Montecarlo S1 cars.
On later Montecarlo cars, a
3 port thermostat can be used to replace the factory
4 port version with a change to the heater return hose connection - the hose needs to be routed to the water pump by
either:
- Replacing the 2 port inlet pipe
CO323
with the 3 port variant
CO324
from early cars and using direct hose
CO317
for improved hose routing;
- Joining into the lower expansion tank hose via Tee piece hose adapter
CO311
and using conversion hose
CO319;
