The thermostat is located (facing the front of vehicle) under the left end of the main upper radiator hose. Disconnect hose from flange by squeezing hose clamp until free. Two bolts hold the flange down and they are NOT the same length. Keep track of which length comes out of which hole. Lift the flange and remove by 1/2 turn to the left (note the single tab on the flange...remember which direction it faces. The thermostat is now full exposed and may be lifted out. Before you do, make sure you not only have a new thermostat but also a new gasket. Scrape old gasket away, apply new gasket, then re-place thermostat, flange and hose. Be gentle with the hose as it has a plastic piece in the middle (holds the fill cap) and I have seen them easily broken.
