What is the purpose of the bypass hose?

I will assume that is in an automobile. A bypass hose goes around the thermostat in your cooling system to allow some coolant to flow whenever the engine is running. This prevents to much pressure to be built up in the system, allows for even cooling at start up and even gives you a slight amount of heat when you start the engine. Your heater core is often part of the bypass system in a car. When the engine's thermometer opens the flow of coolant in the car increases this cooling the engine. As the engine cools the thermostat closes slightly and increases the flow through the core and bypass hose.

How can you bypass a thermostat on a 2000 Saturn LS?

You CAN just remove it; but that introduces another set of problems. The computer monitors the engine temperature, and if the engine is not warming sufficiently the computer will start to report a fault. A cold engine does not perform as well, and if the thermostat is removed the engine will not be able to reach operating temperature. The thermostat restricts coolant flow into the radiator while the engine is cool. Once the engine warms to operating temperature, the thermostat opens, allowing excessive heat to be dissipated through the radiator. Removing the thermostat is NOT recommended and can significantly affect performance and engine wear.

Where is the thermostat in a 1987 ford Crown Victoria?

I assume you are talking about the engine thermostat. Looking at the engine from the front of the vehicle, look for the water pump where all the black cooling lines come together (will be on the front of the engine, almost at the top). There will be a small bypass hose about 6 inches long that runs from one side of a small dome housing to the other. Inside that dome housing is the thermostat.
