Vetus M4.14 Thermostat

[Bod]

Where can I get a new one, without paying £40+ to Vetus?

Or is there a cross-reference to STM3058 for an equivalent thermostat?

 

Thanks

A motor factor should be able to match it from the old one.

I have seen Mitsubishi K6516441 or MD001370 listed as equivalents. ASAP used to have one listed as equivalent to these part numbers, and also Leyland 30A4600100 for Thornycroft engines, but it is discontinued.

 https://www.asap-supplies.com/engine-thermostat-82-degrees-c looks pretty standard, and does list relevant dimensions, which can be checked against the old one.

Thanks Iain_s

My enquires have led to much the same numbers, the 76 degree c version seems to have been discontinued by the manufactures.  Only an 82 degree version is available.

Appears to be the closest, and with a gasket, is a reasonable price. (if it fits!!) Fits a Mitsubishi Colt 1989-90.

I don't think the few extra degrees will cause any difficulties, just slightly hotter water in the tank.

and calorifier - especially important if you have vulnerable people on board and do not have a thermostatic mixing valve on the hot supply.
