HI Sambas,

Found out the engine thermostat is no longer working in my 1979 Westfalia (2L type 4 engine with FI). The thermostat seems difficult and expensive to track down. I've found a few available in the US. Any leads on getting one in Canada so I don't have to bother with international shipping and customs?

Much thanks!

PS Cip1 is my usual 'go to' but they don't carry them.

I bought mine from Awesome powder coating. Great quality but yes I had to pay shipping and customs. I don't know of anywhere else to get them for us Canadians. Sorry.

Canadians: I know a place in the Great White North that sells thermostats.
