Just for identification, is this the bit you're after?

Might be worth renewing the 'stat and the antifreeze at the same time. :wink: :D

No mate its the bit that the elbow bolts onto then bolts onto engine block.The bolt holes in this housing have stripped corroded so
if no one has a spare it will be a machine shop job,but thank you for your interest.

In that case we're looking at Item #9 in this diagram then ?

I can probably lay my paws on one but won't know for sure until later today.

it very gingerly i noticed the ally threads were gone and so was the gasket underneath.I tried Rimmers no joy and i have tried 7 local
breakers........sorry no 800s never had one for ages.Thank you..........ERNIE (scoobyh123 has also replied he might be able to help)

Hi Ernie,

it sounds like Tom can find his quicker and easier than i can so if you send him a PM (Private Message) you're likely to get a quicker result.

Little tip for when you put it all back together - smear some copper grease over the outside of the bolt threads o prevent corrosion between the aluminium casting and the steel bolts. That should prevent the problem coming back. :wink: :D

FYI the housing is the same on cars with and without A/C.
Cheers,
Dave
