Well, for the sake of sounding like the smart ass that I am,sorry, if your working on a 2000 model, that would be an ETech engine and depending on what part of the year it was built, may be a “CCRS”. If her has the uprite thermostat housing, outlet going straight up,takes 1 thermostat and by all means,please put the weep hole to the top, even if you pull old one out and it’s at the bottom or somewhere else. I saw a comment about using scalstic, only if you like digging it out of small fittings and hoses and you do t use the gasket that comes in the new thermostat kit, which, make sure if gasket does cover the check valve(hope it’s a Mack brand) cut hole out and put a new oring in there. E-7 (90-97/8) is done same way. Just thought I would chunk my two cents in the pot!!!!
