Diesel Volvo MD11C Thermostat?

[RECESS]

Any ideas on where I can find a new thermostat and gasket for the MD11C online? I want to do a chemical flush of the cooling system in a closed loop. The articles I have read say to take the thermostat out while doing it. I figured while I have it out, I can replace it.

You may not need to buy a replacement as most thermostats come with the gasket. In any case you can make one out of stiff paper and some silicon sealant. just use the old one as a template and coat both side with sealant.

Google will come up with some..I've bought from Marine Parts Express. They're in Maine somewhere. Also French Creek Marina somewhere in NY..
