Product Description

Keep your Ford’s engine running at the correct temperature with the Arrowhead Thermostat Housing 88°C. This critical cooling component houses the thermostat and connects to key coolant hoses, ensuring precise temperature regulation in your vehicle’s engine. Constructed from robust black plastic with integrated metal inserts, it is designed to withstand the demands of daily driving and resist leaks.

This thermostat housing is suitable for Ford models, specifically those requiring an 88°C thermostat housing. It is commonly used in models such as the Ford Focus II 1.8 TDCi from 1998 to 2012, but always confirm your model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to guarantee proper fitment.

You may also notice poor heater performance or coolant pooling under your vehicle.

Replacing a faulty thermostat housing is essential to prevent engine overheating and possible engine damage. If you notice any of the above symptoms, inspect the housing and replace it promptly to maintain your cooling system’s integrity.
