Baller TFisher Posted May 29, 2023 Baller Share Posted May 29, 2023 Was changing my thermostat on my PCM GT40 and noticed some suspect threads on the lower thermostat housing. Went to order one and they are apparently unavailable. Anyone have one they want to sell? Apparently they are no longer availlable through normal chanels? I had one ordered through shipreck salvage but apparently no longer there. I have back together and not leaking, but would like one around if I can locate. This is the part and number. https://second-wind.net/products/pleasurecraft-r025001-pcm-ford-302-351-raw-water-lower-thermostat-t-stat-housing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller LK_skier Posted May 30, 2023 Baller Share Posted May 30, 2023 A mate has the same problem - he's working on getting one machined out of aluminium from scratch - he was going to see if there was any interest out there as once he has it tested he will do a one time run of them and post them out.

Baller BraceMaker Posted May 30, 2023 Baller Share Posted May 30, 2023 The good news is you could very easily put some helicoil threads or a timesert in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
