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

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.
