Gates CO34981 engine coolant water outlet for the 2006-2010 Kia Optima V6 2.7L and other vehicles sits at the thermostat housing and carries coolant out of the engine. It is designed to fit and perform like the original and to give long service life.
Crusty coolant residue or a crack around the outlet can mean it is leaking. With the engine off and cool, look over the outlet and its hose connection first. Overheating and coolant loss can also start at a hose, the thermostat or the radiator, so find the source before you buy.
It fits the 2006-2010 Kia Optima V6 2.7L, the 2006-2009 Hyundai Santa Fe V6 2.7L and the 2007-2011 Kia Rondo V6 2.7L, with one outlet per vehicle.
