So all my coolant spilled while i was driving and fortunately i was able to shut the engine and coast into a safe spot before the engine really overheated. I opened the hood and immediately heard a hissing noise, it was from under the thermo, checked all the hoses and none were leaking, i touch the thermo and it feels VERY loose, the only thing holding it is the water pipe it's connected to and one other bolt, but the top bolt was very loose. My question is...what can i do to repair this? Do i buy a new bolt? This whole week i've had nothing but bad luck..it's always something. the one day tha i finally got to enjoy my car without any issues, some genius crashed me. lucky that there was no major damage but it still ruined my day.

 

Replace the bolt, [both if the one left is damaged in any way] along with a new thermostat and gasket.94
