Gates Engine Coolant Thermostat P/N:33857S
Keep engine temperature in check with the Gates Engine Coolant Thermostat 33857, an OE Type replacement that drops into the listed 1990-1995 Subaru Legacy, 1993-1995 Subaru Impreza and 1992-1995 Subaru SVX. The thermostat regulates coolant flow between the engine and radiator, staying closed during warm-up so the engine reaches operating temperature quickly, then opening to let coolant circulate and hold a stable temperature — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full engine-level fitment.
Signs the original thermostat may need replacing include an engine that overheats, runs cold, or is slow to warm up, along with erratic temperature-gauge readings. If a stuck thermostat is the cause, this Gates unit replaces it.
