Hello again fellow LS enthusiasts: in my ongoing efforts to change and swap out a few worn parts on my newly acquired LS, I noticed coolant leaking from the area that the thermostat is located. I looked up the part on RockAuto.com and here is what I found:
- water outlet gasket, Fel-Pro #35941
My problem is not in identifying the above gasket, but a gasket that is located to the right of it.
I've taken a picture to help get a better look at it, so I was hoping someone could help me in identifying this second gasket.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated . . .
Stroock and Qewani - thank you both for the timely replies to my question. Just to make sure I am understanding you correctly, I took a close look at the diagram you sent, Qewani.
From the look of the diagram you attached, it seems the seal in question is the water inlet housing seal.
Also, let me attach a picture of the water outlet gasket I found that I referenced earlier. Here it is:
Sha4000, thanks for the confirmation on the thermostat gasket, i.e water outlet gasket. Gentleman, here's my final question (hopefully) in this thread: given all the excellent advice I've received in the last few days, I'm only wondering about one thing now.
In the diagram kindly provided by Qewani, it identifies the water inlet housing seal as part no. 08826-00100. Where else, besides the dealer, can I acquire this part? I found the thermostat gasket for $3.03 on RockAuto, however, the water inlet housing seal and its corresponding O-ring are nowhere to be found.
That is actually the part number for Toyota FIPG( fixed in place gasket ) you can just use the permatex equivalent. I believe it's the ultra grey which you can get at any auto parts store.

Sha4000 - thank you for the timely information on the FIPG. I was not aware of this, so you saved me a lot of hassle with your tip. I will go pick up some permatex as you suggested.
