New thermostat. What's this? See picture... 700 1989

posted by  someone claiming to be Simon on  Tue Dec 9 01:22 CST 2003 [RELATED]

I've got coolant leaking from most of my radiator hoses which were replaced last year. Posted here and got some good suggestions to replace the expansion tank cap and the thermostat.

I got the parts today and when I removed the old thermostat I saw a big crack where it sits in the engine. See picture.

Can anyone tell me if this is a normal crack? And what problems will it give me?

Thanks,

Simon.
