Re: [DML] oterstat

Hank,

I just replaced mine a couple weeks ago. It doesn't look like there's any
good way to do a quick swap. After getting the otterstat out, you have to
remove the rubber seal, then put the new seal in, then put the new
otterstat in. The entire cooling system won't drain, only from the engine
to the otterstat, which isn't much. After the drainage stopped, I put the
new parts in, and had to use half a bottle or so of coolant and some
water. I have Joe's self-bleeding kit installed, so that eliminates the
process of getting the air out of the system.

Replacing the otterstat is one of the easier jobs to do.
