i was changing my thermostat... and when i was tightening the last bolt on the thermostat housing... the fucking thing broke! does anyone know if the thermostat housing on our cars are the same as the neons? there is a chrylser dealership near me and i know that parts for neons are cheap than parts for eclipses. i guess ill try and find talon parts too.. but im just looking for a quick and cheap fix. need help asap.. thanks

you can use the housing from a Dodge avenger with the 420a

Exactly, I buy all my gaskets and such from my Chrysler Dealer, better prices and a parts department that has a clue.

well.. i ended up having to take it without lube from mitsu satan... i called all chrysler, dodge and mitsu dealerships w/in a 60 mile radius and there was only one that had them in stock (i needed my car done by that day)... wasnt too bad.. the tstat housing was about 28 from mitsu.. but i could have got it for 15 from any chrysler/dodge.. bastards!

but funny you should mention that i should go to a chrysler dealership because they would be more knowledgeable (sp?).. everytime i would tell them that i have an eclipse NT.. but was trying to get a part of the avenger, talon, neon, etc.... EVERY single idiot said, well... you have a mitsu engine, i suggest you call mitsu... :rolleyes
so i just got to the point where i just stopped telling them that i had an eclipse and told them i had a talon. hell.. some of them said that all talons had a mitsu engine.. goddamn, the level of ignorance is extremely high at dealerships (domestic and import)
