If the thermostat on a 1996 Ford Windstar has been replaced but it still only blows cold air and the gauge rises above half when sitting still what could be wrong?

I would expect a plugged heater core.Take your hand and feel the two heater hoses that pass thru the firewall on the passenger side; if one is hot and the other is much cooler, than you heater core is plugged and needs replacement.

Where is the engine block drain plug for a 2001 ford windstar?
On the 2002 Windstar there is a 3/8" square head antifreeze drain plug above the starter. This drains the left bank of the block and can be replaced with a 1/4" pipe valve.

1998 sunfire 2.4L dual how do you change the thermostat?
You might as well take the motor our, its a pain in the a**. the thermostat is between the motor and the firewall and above the transmission...NOT fun. I replaced mine when I had to rebuild the motor due to a broken writs pin :(
You replaced the thermostat in your 2001 Chevy venture but the van is still overheating the top radiator hose is hard and hot to the touch like the thermostat is not opening up please advise?
The top radiator hose is above the thermostat. If the top radiator hose is hot, the thermostat is opening. The thermostat is not the problem. Perhaps the radiator is clogged up or the water pump is bad. Look elsewhere.
What does the warning light above the temperature gauge in a ford windstar mean?

Where is my engine thermostat on my 2001 BMW 325 Ci with the 6 cyl.?
It is mounted on the cylinder head at the front of the engine, right above water pump. The thermostat and housing are one part replaced as a unit. It has the 2 coolant hoses going to it. Note that the 3-Series has an electrically heated engine thermostat, so there is a connector to disconnect.

Why would the radiator fan continue to run after the engine stops after the thermostat was replaced on a 2002 Nissan Altima?
Ingeneral, the fan will run only if the temperature of the radiator is above the normal range. If the fan is running, then the radiator must be over temp unless the radiator fan thermostat or it's relay is defective. If the radiator truly is over temp then you have a larger over-heating problem You state the thermostat was replaced. if you replaced the fan thermostat then either the radiator really is over temp and it is doing what it should, or there is a problem with the thermostat-fan relay or switch. If you replaced the engine thermostat that controls the flow of coolent between the engine and the radiator, then that probably wasn't your problem and you should look elsewhere for an overheating cause. I would start by determining if the engine actually is overheating or not. If it is, I would look for coolent system problems like the engine thermostat (if you didn't replace it already), water pump, leaks, scale build up in the radiator, or blockages in the system. If the engine isn't overheating then I would consentrate on the fan, fan thermostat and relays.
How do you replace a thermostat on a 1987 Jeep?
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.
