    Dude, you're not supposed to use the gasket. The thermostat seal IS the gasket.

    Quick question. Can a bad thermostat cause your cooling fan not to turn on? Fan on the passenger side of a 99 honda civic.. I changed the 3 sensors the one on the thermostat the 2 below the distributer. I also checked my fuses and everything is good but still the fan doesnt turn on when the ac is turned on. My fan on the driver side turns on just fine.. i tried the alligator clip connected to the cooling fan terminal and directly connected it to my battery and my cooling fan came on so it seems like my fan is fine since it turned on that way? U think a bad thermostat is causing the fan not to turn on?

      If the thermostat is stuck closed, then no coolant is flowing past the fan sensor to turn it on. My mechanic set the fan to always on and I drove without a thermostat until I got a replacement (you cannot do this if you live in an extremely cold environment though).

      @@WavyVaporizers It literally just happened to me. The sensor to turn on the fan is located in the thermostat cover (right where the fan's power is plugged into) and trust me, if the thermostat is not letting the hot coolant out of the engine to turn on the fan, then there is no way your fan is going to turn on.

      @@rookie1178 I been changed the sensor on top of the thermostat so it isnt the switch. My car is now overheating without turning on the ac all the sudden. Do I need to change the thermostat housing as well or just the thermostat and the seal?
