me and my friend recently switched the thermostat on a 2002 mitsubishi eclipse gt, it leaked so we thought it was the gasket and replaced that again, it continued to leak and we thought it was the lower bolt leaking. we replaced the bolt and car is still leaking from the same place. should replace the thermostat housing?

On a car that old a cracked or warped thermostat housing would not be a surprise, but it would be best to find the leak before replacing parts. It would not cause the car to overheat unless a lot of coolant leaked out.

the leak was coming from around the lower bolt area, i’m looking later to see about your guess of a cracked/warped housing
