Title: Thermostat extention tube o-rings?
Post by: WGoins88 on 13 August 2010, 15:07:05
Hey guys, I need big help on this one.. mainly because no one seems to carry these. When I pulled apart my Catera last year, I had to get this out because I intend on replacing the thermostat mainly because it's so complicated to get to. However the o-rings on the extension tube were completely shot and needed replacing. No one seems to have these, however everyone has the thermostat O-ring.... why would everyone carry the one, and not the others?

If anyone can help me on this, I'd appreciate it so much. I think what I'd need more than anything is a part number, or even someone on here that can sell me a set.

Yes, those 2 rings are common items over here in the UK, can't understand why they wouldn't be your side of the pond :o


Might be worth PMing AndyC who works at a UK Vauxhall Dealer, and does do mail order.  Ensure you make it clear to him that you are in the US

You would not believe how many parts for these cars don't exist over here.... I think it's because the Catera only had a 5 year stint here.
