That's probably a good bet. Thermostats are relatively cheap and if you have a concern such as the one you describe, you should just change the thermostat.
Remove the water supply hose from your 1987 Chevy Astro thermostat housing. Remove the thermostat housing retaining bolts. Remove the old thermostat and drive in the new thermostat.
brilliant, the thermostat is backwards
Look where the upper radiator hose connects to the engine. There you will find the thermostat.
Follow the top radiator hose to the engine, it is in the thermostat housing where that hose meets the engine.
Trouble code P0128 means:Coolant thermostat (coolant temp below thermostat regulating temp)
It's either the thermostat or the heater controls.
Follow the upper radiator hose from the radiator back to the engine. The hose is hooked to the thermostat housing on the engine side. There should be two bolts holding the housing to the engine. Remove these bolts and lift the housing. There you will see the thermostat.
Under the hood just follow the upper radiator hose to the engine and u will find it it has the thermostat under the alluminum base the is hold by two bolts..
The 1995 Chevrolet Astro and coolant temperature sensor can be found on the front of the engine. The coolant temperature sensor will be a few inches above the thermostat housing.
well it depends on which parts! you need to be a little bit more specific here..
if you follow the upper rad hose towards the engine, where the hose attaches to the motor it is under that housing.
The hottest they make for the 1993 Astro is 195 deg., so if you are lower then that you can put one of them in.
