follow the topradiator line to the block there you will find two blots (10mm) remove them and the thermostat is right there. once you remove the old one clean the block (razor blade works the best.) then put back in the order you removed everything and your set. you well also need about 2 jugs of coolant (50/50 mix) because this much well come out as you are removing the thermostat. it is also easier if you remove the top fan guard as well. good luck.

assuming you have water in the radiator and it is not frozen and the electric fans are coming on - then you have a stuck thermostat. Replace it. Drain your coolant and flush the system, replace the thermostat and fill with 50/50 coolant and water.Also check the drained coolant for signs of contaminates like gas or oil, you may need a head gasket.
