2 thermostats because even Dodge doesn't trust Dodge anymore 😂
Dodge sucks.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I had to replace the wife’s radiator in her G6 once and while in there decided we would go ahead and replace the leaking oil filter adapter gasket. The gasket from the Orielly store blocked an oil path. The original had a hole that lined up with it. Went to GM dealership and bought theirs and it was updated but same shape and the same hole. Sometimes aftermarket parts are identical and sometimes they figure will fit a similar sized outer surface means it’s good enough.
The other good reason to buy from the dealer is those pesky 1/2 year production vehicles. The dealer will know which part it needs based on the date of manufacture. Most parts stores, I've found, just guess. Thank you for sharing your experience & watching the channel. Keep wrenching 🔧
Two thermostats: “It keeps the Cylinder heads at a colder temperature in order to control cam pinging and provide better MPG by keeping incoming air cooler (bigger compression).
The secondary (hotter) thermostat keeps the main engine block hotter to help lubrication (hotter oil being slicker) and thus reducing friction/wear.”
Lazy home mechanic just want to get it done.😂
I hate plastic engine parts with a passion. I've had to replace three thermostat housings on three different vehicles because of leaks. None of the vehicles had any cooling issues other than leaking housings. Garbage parts. Never had to replace a metal housing.
I hate those type of hose clamps!
Go O.E.M. (spring clamps) as they are designed to expand and contract with the hose.
I can attest to that as when working in the dealer shops every time, I had to remove a factory spring clamp, I always tried to save it if possible, but living in CT was hard due to salt corrosion! I noticed that after changing any rubber hoses, when the vehicle would come back for an oil change or something, I had to retighten the worm gear clamps.
That's a handy bit of knowledge. I didn't think of that.
Something I learned in an A/C class once and a suggestion for ya.
On your "O"-rings use silicone GREASE it wont cause the rubber to start breaking down, swell, damage plastics, will cook off with heat and makes an excellent lubrication for putting things together
"She's got two of 'em!" 😮
2 stats = better temp regulation. My 03 sentra has 1 on bottom side of block, and top side, where they typically are. Sounds counter intuitive, but it does make a difference as far as temp regulation goes. Not sure how 2 stats within 6" of eachother would prove beneficial though. Good show sir.
Nice video brother Kenny! Another great job. I was so glad to see that you replaced all of those worm screw clamps with the constant pressure clamps. You made it look factory fresh.
Excellent video & great repair
I hate those type clamps,they work ok on some applications but for hoses that connects over plastic,they always end up leaking for me, guess it is what it is
That mess of kinked hoses and tee fittings looks like a "boat mechanic" was working on the car...
This is the kind of stuff you see on boats.
(I put it in quotes because there are genuine mechanics who work on boats and they do good work. And then there are "boat mechanics.")
All I can say is that I'm glad that when I lift the hood on my cars, a big American V-8 is there to greet me.
Another great video 📸 thx
I was glad to see those spring clamps, in my experience the worm style clamps leak after a couple of years due to shrinking hoses. Keep the good stuff coming Kenny.
Nice job!
Kenny I had a flu for the last week I finally bought a Vicks vaporizer steam therapy Vicks unit to clear out my chest from bronchitis , it broke free to day , it seems cold and flu's last longer when your a mechanic , may be because of all the old face diapers hanging around the cars we work on . get better soon bud .
that hose work looks like a roadside quickey repair just to get home.i myself have done temp work just to get people home.but when it does work.they think a rig to get them home is permanent.even when you tell them up front, its NOT. its just to get the hell away from the cars going 70 mph 3 feet away.
I'm glad to see you used the new clamps. Some people feel the ones you put on isnt good enough, so they use the other kind and over tighting way too much. My god, it's only around 15 pounds pressure
Brilliant video as usual Kenny I do a lot of work on my driveway/my parents driveway and it’s amazing how much you can do without a lift and fancy expensive tools this what you call worm clamps we call jubilee clips here in the uk don’t ask me why lol but I have always had good success with them just easier and quicker I suppose gonna be be replacing the turbo cartridge on my Nissan qashqai soon and will be putting all new worm clamps on that’s after I have replaced my brake callipers and hoses and cv joints would love to see if you have an easy way of removing cv joints from the drive shafts keep the videos coming always learning something new from them take care and stay safe
Good morning Mr Kenny hope y'all have a wonderful day
Plastic Fantastic (sarcasm)
Those components should have been made in metal... But, "planned obsolescence"
Some dorman aftermarket parts actually cast them in metal, not plastic so that's one plus when looking for a replacement
I always use distilled water in my cooling systems. Back in the 70's using tap water caused my 70 Mustang heater core to plug up with the calcium deposits that were in the tap water. But that water was very hard well water. Other community water supplies may not be so hard. I learned many things the hard way.....
I always wonder how chlorine can affect the system. Seems some water supply is high on chlorine. I would think it is safer to go with distilled water. Well definitely on my own vehicle 😂
You have the greatest shows….
I think the cylinder head thermostat is to get the cylinder head up to temperature faster. The other thermostat let coolant flow to the radiator.
💙
You might have mentioned this previously but how often do you come across the wrong coolant or mixed coolants in engines?
Great job Kenny, never seen that one. Thank you for sharing this video!!!😊
Rotate until it snaps...nooooo! 😅
I can not understand why some people use the incorrect size worm drive clamp they are not expensive. The only reason they were used on that vehicle is if it had the failure at their residence & had no way to go get some from a store (parts or garden). Cheers mate.
Never use screw clamps on plastic fittings
Do you believe in Petrogel / O ring lube to hold them in place and lube them so they don't get chafed?
👍😎👍
Yeah why two thermostats, my sons Patriot has two in a plastic diaphragm also? Just replaced the whole thing and a cap. Just wondered why two, first time I saw that. Must be a reason?
244k I didn't expect that.
Two thermostats means more money 💰 🤷🏻♂️.
Hi,conglomeration indeed,what a plastic bunch of crap.The 6.5 diesel I have has two thermostats.Thank Titaniumman22 for the grate explanation.
Hoses on plastic tubing normally have spring clamps?
It depends on the manufacturer.

Please do a video on replacing coolant hoses on a Nissan 3.3L engine, it's a nightmare to replace them a few look impossible to replace.
Which Nissan are you referring to? I have done that job on a Frontier & they are a beast to change.
@@WrenchingWithKenny
The 3.3L engine found on the Frontier and Exterra. I can see that Toyota does a better job of engineering in most cases. It seems that Nissan makes things harder than they have to be?
I may have to change all the coolant hoses soon so I like to know the least painful method or should I farm it out? I am a novice mechanic on weekends.
Thank you
Here's the thing. I have done this job before & it can be kind of a nightmare. The biggest problem will be the hoses that go to the heater core. Both times I did them, the hose tube of the heater core fell apart. So you end up with an even bigger job than you originally planned for. Plus! If you don't get it right, you will have disabled your vehicle & need a tow. Many mechanics are not thrilled with the idea of fixing someone else's work. If you're questioning your ability you should probably farm it out. If I get one in I will definitely do a video, though. Thanks for watching & keep wrenching 🔧
@@WrenchingWithKenny Thanks a Bunch!
When its a 4cyl its easy work
Wondering what problem they are addressing that required two thermostats?
Titanium provides a quote text from somewhere... Scroll up to see or Google it
My Nissan Altima also has 2 thermostats, shrugs
Using clamps that are too big is a real bad idea. If they're too big they get out of round before they'll tighten up and will leak no matter how tight they are. From the looks of those clamps, I'd bet this thing leaked in multiple areas. Guaranteed some green horn rookie had worked on this thing.
Worm drive clamps on a car.
Tell me you’re a hack without actually telling me you’re a hack.
Mopars are all plastic now...
9:50 new word🐻crazy not 🍌🍌🍌😊
can't understand why you just won't video the entire process. You are way behind if that's from October 1st
I totally agree with that.
Probably doesn't have his tripod since he's filming at home. Give him a break, he's had a lot going on. Also it's not like he's skipping much. Kenny's a good dude and he's not putting out step by step how-to stuff, that's never been his MO.
Ou good grief....
@@philspear73he could probably buy another tripod at harbor freight
Dang man, how many repair videos do you have posted?
Why would they use 2 thermostats... well Kenny, you are partial to Dodge because you worked there for a long time, but the truth is, Dodge sucks. That's why they hide a thermostat in there. Terrible product.
