loosen the bottom bolt with a 13 mm swival head socket, do not remove the bolt all the way, take out the top one and the thermostat housing will slide out and then remove the thermostat.

Follow the upper radiater hose from the radiater to the engine block. The part that the hose attaches to on the intake manifold is the thermostat housing. In the housing is the thermostat. Just two bolts attaches thermostat housing to the intake manifold which is attached to the engine block. If you replace the thermostat yourself make sure that you see how the thermostat was before you take it out. The spring side faces into the intake manifold. Drain some radiater fluid before removing the housing or you will spill fluid all over your engine block. Best to do this with the engine cold. Buy a gasket and high heat antifreeze resistent silicon gasket sealer when you buy the thermostat.

Where is the PCV valve on the 2.0l zetec-e engine?
It is not in the valve cover, as on other Focus engines. It is on the side of the engine, under the intake manifold, plugged into the "oil separator". It is possible to reach it from underneath, albeit blindly, if you have the car on a rack. The service manual suggests removing the intake manifold to get to it. The difficulty in reaching it may have something to do with the service schedule for replacement being set way out at 100,000 miles.

How do you replace thermostat in 1995 ford aerostar?
Where the top radiator hose goes to the engine there is a two-bolt housing that the hose is connected to, that is where the thermostat is . After the engine is cool, drain enough coolant from the radiator so when removing the two housing bolts you don't lose a lot of of it. After removing the 2 housing bolts You should find your thermostat setting in the intake manifold for the 4.0 and just behind the housing in the 3.0 just give it a little twist and it should come out then.
