The managed to get out the broken end of the original valve by threading it. They also installed the new serpentine belt.

Now onto the check valve. I couldn't get it out on my own, and it wouldn't hold with Permatex, so I went to a local shop for help.

New CTS. One of the previous owners broke the connector and tried to seal it with some sort of gasket maker. The blower/air pump/whatever needs to come out in order to do this job.

I needed help, so I went to a local shop. They broke off the remaining base of the check valve, and threaded and removed the portion that extends into the opening.

One absolutely MUST remove the blower motor, or whatever that is, to be able to reinstall the CTS. What a miserable design. Thankfully, removing the blower motor was very simple.

Which one of these things is the engine temp sensor? I didn't recall even touching it, and now it's not working.

If you look at the upper portion of that hose, the clamp has torn through the hose. Now it makes sense...
