Best Answer

First, locate it: put your hand on the upper radiator hose and follow it to the engine. The metal piece the hose is attached to is the thermostat housing. It's held on with two bolts. Take them out, and pull the housing away from the engine. You have a new thermostat and a new gasket--I don't know why thermostats don't come with gaskets, but they're sold separately. There's a slot in the gasket that runs all the way around the inside of it. Work the gasket around the thermostat until the new thermostat looks like the old one. Before you remove the old thermostat, look at it: there's a pin coming out of the thermostat body. You must install the new thermostat with the pin in the same place. Pull out the old thermostat, press the new one in its place with your fingers, set the thermostat housing back on the engine and tighten the bolts to 25 lb-ft. Next, look at the top of the thermostat housing. You'll see two sensors--they've got cables coming out of them--and a bolt with kind of a nipple in the middle of it. That's the bleeder bolt. Loosen it with a 12mm socket. Take off the radiator cap and slowly pour coolant--be sure it's either Honda Genuime or an "all makes all models" coolant--into the radiator until some comes out of the bleeder bolt. Then tighten it and you're done.
