A thermostat can be stuck open or closed. If the engine runs to cool it is stuck open. If the engine is running hot it is stuck closed. If you don't have these problems you should'nt have to change it.
You will need a new head gasket if you see engine coolant in the oil. I don't know about the thermostat.
If you know where the intake manifold is, you will find the thermostat housing under it after taking the manifold off. You could also follow the upper radiator hose to your thermostat housing.
On a 1995 Ford Ranger : I know on the 4.0 liter EFI engine , you follow the top radiator hose from the radiator . It connects to a metal pipe which is part of the engine cooling thermostat housing that is bolted to the front of the engine . The thermostat is inside the housing
Is you Geo Tracker overheating or the temperature is running almost hot then you need to change you thermostat
I just bought a thermostat for a 1995 Club Wagon (essentially an E150 Econoline) with a 5.8 L engine. They sold me a 192 degree thermostat. Is that what you wanted to know?
If the engine is overheating, the thermostat is stuck closed. If the heater is not putting out enough hot air the thermostat is stuck open. Change the thermostat as a normal part of maintenance when changing coolant.
I know the 1998 to 2002 camaro z28, ss have same ls1 engine as the corvette ls1. Only differets is horsepower. A pc program can change the horsepower to both camaro and corvette
When the engine overheats because thermostat won't open to allow the water to flow and cool!
