Reference: Engine News, May 1999, Page 21, "New Jacket Water Heater Groups Help Prevent Coolant Leaks"
New components are used in the jacket water heater groups for these engines. The jacket water heater groups now include a new thermostat (sensing unit) and a new heater element assembly. The new heater element assembly uses a V-band clamp. The V-band clamp provides better sealing than the former tapered pipe thread connection. These improvements will help eliminate coolant leaks from the jacket water heater groups.
Note: The new thermostat (sensing unit) is adaptable to all earlier jacket water heater groups. The new heater element assembly is NOT adaptable to the earlier jacket water heater groups.
