Tools and Consumables



A quick summary of the things you will need to do the job are detailed below.
  • Screwdrivers / Spanners
  • Utility Knife / Hacksaw
  • Pliers
  • Jubilee Clips (~30mm Diameter)
  • PTFE/Teflon Tape
  • Distilled Water (2 Litres)
  • Engine Coolant (2 Litres)
  • Temperature Gauge (and sender if not included)
  • Cable
  • Coolant Hose Adapter (30mm OD)
  • Jack / Axel Stands
  • Multimeter
The above list is pretty self explanatory, the only thing you may not know is the Coolant Hose Adapter. These can be picked up off eBay (Raid HP do a range) or from other online stores such as Demon Tweaks.

They look like:

If you would like to completely flush the cooling system while you are at it, seeing as you will be doing half anyway, them you will also need:
  • Paper Gasket (or specific thermostat gasket)
  • Gasket Sealant
