    About $25 shipped off the internet. Just depends on if you have the new or original style pump.

    believe thermostat is part of housing on one... and seperate on the other.
    blown transmissions are about as useful as 97% of the guys on this forum

    The newer ones have a cover with just a "regular" tstat behind it and the old ones have the tstat as part of the cover....old style costs a lot more....but buy a new $300 water pump and you can save $40 on the tstat....

    why, do the new water pumps have it built in? what happens if the tstat in such a pump fails?
