Frequently asked questions

What does the thermostat housing gasket 247874 do?
The thermostat housing gasket seals the joint between the thermostat housing and the engine block, preventing coolant from leaking at the thermostat assembly. It fits 4-cylinder petrol and diesel engines on the Land Rover Series 2/2A/3 (1958-1985) and Defender up to 2006.
Should the thermostat housing gasket be replaced when removing the thermostat?
Yes, renew the gasket whenever the thermostat housing is disturbed. Compressed gaskets don't reliably re-seal, so reusing one risks a coolant leak after reassembly. Part 247874 is also cross-referenced as GTG110 and BR 1153.
What causes the thermostat housing gasket to fail on a Defender or Series engine?
The gasket typically fails through heat cycling, coolant corrosion, and long-term compression set. Look for coolant seeping from around the thermostat housing, unexplained coolant loss, or overheating as signs it needs replacing on the 2.25L petrol or 2.5L diesel engines.
