I want to fit the Renault 5 thermostat to the top hose on my CDT Tourer but I'm a bit confused.
When I look at pictures of the thermostat on the web it seems to have a cylindrical part covering the end with the spring (see 1st link below). But when I look at Jules' description of how to install the thermostat I can't see this cylindrical part - has this all been cut away (see 2nd link)?
