Dayco 82C Thermostat Housing DT260A
Dayco 82C Thermostat Housing Fits Ford Territory, Land Rover Discovery, Range Rover Sport
The thermostat's role in engine management is vital. A thermostat that has failed in the open position will make your heater appear not to work for an extended period during winter. If it fails in the closed position, it can cause your car's engine to overheat, leading to costly repairs or even complete engine failure. Dayco thermostats are designed to OEM specifications and come equipped with a heat sensing wax-filled copper power pill that detects the coolant temperature in the engine. This innovative design controls coolant flow from the radiator when the engine is cold, allowing it to reach optimum operating temperature quickly, and then circulates coolant through the engine when the operating temperature is reached, creating a perfectly temperature-controlled engine environment.
