The thermostat is located behind the piece that the upper radiator hose connects to on the engine. The engine should be cold and the radiator cap removed before removing the hose where it is connected to the engine. Then the throat the hose was on is unbolted and pulled loose. Remove the thermostat and use a scraper to clean both mating surfaces. Install the new thermostat and gasket and bolt it back in place and re-install the hose. Although it is not really necessary, a gasket sealant can be used to keep the gasket in place - this should be evenly and thinly smeared along the surfaces.
This can be a tricky process. Unless you have some experience with vehicles, it might be best to leave to the professionals.
You don't, you replace or rebuild the engine.
Remove the water supply hose from the top of your 2000 Mercury Villager thermostat housing. Remove the thermostat housing retaining bolts. The old thermostat will simply lifts out. Drop in the new thermostat and reverse the process.
I would like to answer that but I don't know what a "moniford" is.
To replace lamps the cluster must be removed.
You don't as it does not have a cable. You replace the speed sensor instead.
If the idler pulley is frozen, it is high time to replace the timing belt and the idler. And while that job is being done, consider replacing the water pump and thermostat.
The fuel pump is in the tank and the tank must be removed to replace it.
The brakes on the Villager are as straight forward as the brakes on a 1965 Mercury. Only normal brake tools are required.
The engine in the Mercury Villager does not use a timing chain, it uses a timing belt. The recommended belt replacement interval is 105,000 miles.
Passenger side (front of the motor) in the middle. Just above the water pump. Must remove cover and harmonic balancer to install. Very difficult.
The water pump does not have a "tensioner".
