1991, V6, pickup

Right in front, near the top, of the motor there is a spot where the coolant either goes in or comes out of the motor. Two bolts connect the part from the radiator side to the part that is connected to the motor.........what is this called? I need to get a gasket for it.

 

try the fsm link in my signature...

 

I keep thinking it is the thermostat but the darn thing is rectangle not round............feel like a dummy.........

 

reservoir..........I think...........don't see where there is a gasket for it though. May just pust some liquid gasket on it.

 

You're talking about where the upper hose attaches and goes through the timing cover right?

If yes, then there is no seal. Go to Toyota and get some FIPG.

 

that is it........thanks!
