The check engine light is because the EGR 'lift sensor' is showing that the valve is not lifting when it should be, or it is indicating the sensor is open, or the voltage is out of range the lift sensor may be bad, or it's not lifting when it should be (vacuum leak, vacuum switch leak upstream) EGR normally does not activate at idle, or engine will stall (as you have seen). clear the codes, then hook up a vacuum gauge when driving the car. Once the car is warmed up, there should be vacuum at the egr valve at part throttle. If not, the upstream vacuum switch is faulty or vacuum is leaking out somewhere. See the following tips on Mazda egr systems: http://www.asashop.org/autoinc/sept2002/techtips.cfm

AnswerAT the engine end of the upper rad hose.on a millenia, the thermostat is inside the flange on the engine side of the LOWER hose. look under the coolant resevoir. see the lower hose? follow it to the engine. where it connects, that is the cover for the thermostat.
