About a Gal. and a 1/2 of coolant.

You may have put the thermostat in backwards, which would restrict coolant flow. Also, look at radiator inner cores for signs of buildup. If so, replace radiator, it's cheaper than repairing the radiator.
Many factors involved here; brand of tstat, branch pressure (depending what the tstat is actuating) DA?, RA?, day/night combination stat? ....... which one do you have? -Joe
The tstat is between the engine and the radiator cap. Unbolt the tstat housing from the engine block, scrape off the old gasket and take out the old tstat. Be careful not to let anything fall into the engine. I put a paper towel in the hole while I'm scraping off the old crap. Put in the new tstat and make sure it is going the same direction as the old, and make sure it is flush with the engine block. Use some high pressure grease and bolt it all back together. I would change the cap too. You'll also need gasket sealant and of course (if you follow the directions above) a new gasket, otherwise, you'll spring a leak!
If you are certain the tstat is the problem, remove it and connect a jumper between the terminals R and W and the heat will start. Remove the jumper when the house warms up. Replace the stat.
need to be specific, but usually byswitching the tstat to heat and raising the temperature.
The thermostat on a 2001 Nissan xterra is located next to the bottom radiator hose.
Bad fan relay or tstat.

Unbolt it and the thermostat is inside.
