Thermostat jiggle pin position
Hi
When replacing the thermostat, is the position of the jiggle pin (air pressure release) important when putting the thermostat in the housing. (Volvo v40 2003.) In step 4 in link below - it looks like there is a little cutaway in the thermostat housing for the pin. https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/2001+Vo...lacement/12551 But in other images i seen on the Internet there is no cutaway. Standing in front of the engine, my pin was in the 4 or 5 o'clock position i.e. towards the radiator. (can't remember if my housing has the cutaway - must check) Regards Donal.
