    Can anyone tell me if this is an easy enough DIY job or have a link to changing it on a Mrk 4 Fiesty

    Thanks

    30 minute job, the valve is on the top of the bulkhead behind the engine, 4 pipes and 1 plug, biggest job is bleeding the coolant system afterwards, sometimes it bleeds straight away and sometimes its a nightmare(a major ford dealer told me to drill holes in the thermostat flange:eek:)

    Thanks for that seems straight forward enough - just one question why would you want to bleed the coolant system ?

    Water will piss out when you remove the valve.
