The previous answer is incorrect! The 3.0 and 3.3 liter engines used in all the Mercury Villagers and Nissan Quests from 1993-2002 have the thermostat installed just the opposite of most all other engines. The spring side of the thermostat goes into the thermostat housing not the engine block as was previously stated below.

Flat Side Outward, Spring Side Toward Engine

How do you change the thermostat on a 2001 Honda CR-V?

Locate the top radiator hose. Find where it connects to the engine, there is a cast-metal housing that the hose connects to. Remove the hose from the casting and the casting from the engine. Inside the housing is the thermostat. As you remove it, pay particular attention to the direction the thermostat is placed in the inlet side. Install the new thermostat and reassemble in the reverse order. It isn't necessary to get the replacement from a dealer, the thermostat itself is inexpensive when bought at an auto parts store.

How do you change thermostat on 97 Plymouth breeze 2.0?

To change the thermostat on a 1997 Plymouth Breeze 2.0, a bucket should be placed under the vehicle where the hose for the thermostat is. This will catch any leaking antifreeze. Remove the hose clamp from the top radiator hose where it connects to the engine. Note how the thermostat is positioned in the hose. Remove the old thermostat and replace with a new one. Tighten the hose clamp after reconnecting it to the motor. Check antifreeze level and refill if necessary.
