Maybe someone on the forum has a spare 617 tstat housing, and they would be willing to help a new member out....or there is always PNP.

The housing that the tstat sits in is fine. The bolt is snapped off on the engine block side in the threads

I like the first line in post number 7.

Before my daugher went to work today I went out and unplugged the Heat pump to it would run open.
She just got there and sent me a text thanking me because she finally has heat.

Still have to get that think working correctly. But for now she wont freeze.
