Keep engine temperature in check and let coolant flow at the right moment with the Gates Engine Coolant Thermostat (MPN 33006), an OE Type replacement that drops into a wide range of cars and trucks. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1988-1995 Chevrolet C1500, the 1988-1995 Chevrolet K1500 and the 1994-1995 Dodge Ram 1500. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engines.
The thermostat stays closed while the engine warms, then opens to route coolant to the radiator once operating temperature is reached, helping hold a stable temperature.
