Is there any substitutions for the thermostat gasket that I could get at a local store? I almost have everything back together, but I failed to order the gasket and am trying to avoid the $13 shipping for a $3 gasket. thanks!

I make my own out of gasket material you can buy at any auto parts store.Mark Smith

Match it
Just take the old one or the housing to a parts store and they can match it. You could probably find one at PEP Boys too.

Didn't someone here mention that a $1 bill was about the best waterproof paper ever made? For a t-stat gasket, I might to 2 or 3 layers?
