Its under the exhaust cross-over pipe,middle to be exact. Very hard to get the two bolts out.to remove the hsg.It would be easier for you to remove that exhaust pipe to gain access to it

Answer 3

The first poster needs to put it in simple English: To find the thermostat, first find the upper hose on the radiator. Follow that hose toward the engine until you find the elbow piece where the hose meets the engine. If you remove that elbow piece, you'll see the thermostat in the "hose line," or the thermostat will fall out. To replace the thermostat, you'll need a new thermostat and gasket. You can get them at NAPA or AutoZone or any major auto parts store. Scrape the old gasket off the elbow piece and put the new one in place. The thermostat goes in the hole under the elbow piece, so once you bolt the elbow piece back in place the thermostat will be held in place. Make sure the new thermostat goes in the same way as the old thermostat -- many of them have markings to indicate which side goes toward the engine.

Answer 5

Follow the top radiator hose to where it goes into the intake manifold. The part the hose clamps onto is called the gooseneck, the thermostat is under it.

Answer 6

ok it is a easy fix all you have to do is trace thte hose that is coming from the top of your raditor to where it goes to on the engine and that is where it is. it should only be like 2 bolts..but make sure when you put it back in you put in the same way you took it out if not it wont work right
