Best Answer

The thermostat should be located underneath the top hose coming off of your radiator. Remove the 2 bolts holding it onto the top of the engine and the thermostat will be sitting smiling at you. Pull it out with your two fingers, clean up the old gasket with a razor (don't etch the metal), replace the new gasket that came with the replacement part, and reverse removal order mentioned above.
