I have a b18a1 from a 91 teg

it needs a tstat

which honda has a tstat I can buy from my honda dealer to put in this NON-VTEC b18?

 

anyone?

 

short answer, that 91 teg tstat should do just fine

your honda dealer doesnt have those tstats or what?

 

my 91 teg tstat is not fine
that is why I am looking for help on replacing it

I have 3 local honda dealers, no local acura dealers

the question is:

What tstat can I get at a Honda dealer that will work in a B18A1?

 

they dont sell acura parts at a honda dealer? news to me

 

well, if they do, I never knew

I just never thought of going into a Honda dealer and asking for a 1991 Acura Integra tstat

I will do so tomorrow.

 

I would think they could atleaat order u one

 

have you bought acura parts at a Honda dealer yourself jnemci?

 

have you bought Acura parts at a Honda dealer yourself jnemci?

 

any of the b seires should work b20 b16 as well as the d series they will fit

 

acura = honda so i dont see why they couldnt order you one..or even go to advanced auto parts or autozone....

 

wow Jimmy, thanks, I have a spare d-block tstat, I dont have a spare grommet though,

you have put a d-tstat into a b-block?

does the b-block use a grommet around the tstat like the d-block?

is the grommet the same as well?

 

Update:
I learned from an industrious Honda dealer that cross referenced and confirmed by calling an Acura dealer to have them look.

The D-block and B-block use EXACTLY the same tstat.(at least EF = DA tstats)

Though that dealer also quoted a higher price($26) than another Honda dealer here($23).
I thought the dealers wer going to have the same price for oem parts. Isnt that set by Honda Corp, not the local dealer?
