Beck/Arnley Engine Coolant Thermostat P/N:143-0900
Keep your engine at its proper operating temperature with the Beck/Arnley Engine Coolant Thermostat 143-0728. This thermostat is a direct-fit replacement for a range of foreign-nameplate applications, including the 1985-1988 Chevrolet Nova, 1989-1997 Geo Prizm, 1989-1999 Nissan Sentra, 1983-2001 Toyota Camry, 1983-1997 Toyota Corolla and 1980-1997 Toyota Tercel — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
A thermostat is a temperature-sensitive valve in the cooling system: it stays closed while the engine warms up, then opens to let coolant circulate to the radiator, helping hold a stable operating temperature. If a stuck or failed original thermostat is the cause of an engine that runs too hot or never reaches full temperature, this unit replaces it.
