    2001 VMAX 225 ox66 - Thermostat location?

    I've been told to check my thermotstats on my engine also (overheating issue - 01 vmax 225 ox66)... any chance someone can post up a photo on what they look like and where they are located?


    Thanks!

    I thought I had one, but I don't. There's one on each head, on the top of the head, and there's two bolts that go through the stat cover into the top of each head. It'd be wise to get new gaskets first before you go removing them.

    You could use the parts link pinned at the top of the page and get a good general idea of the location.
