AISIN 180°F Thermostat
For 1988–1995 Toyota 4Runner and Toyota Pickup with 3VZ-E
Overview
This OE-manufacturer replacement from AISIN regulates coolant flow through the radiator as the engine warms up. It retains the original-equipment temperature rating for the Toyota 3VZ-E cooling system.
The bottom-bypass design combines the main thermostat valve with a lower bypass valve. A matching AISIN thermostat gasket is available with the thermostat as an optional configuration for cooling-system service.
