The Thermostat Housing is located on the right hand side of the engine. Remember this is FWD configuration so think of it as being mounted on the "rear" of the engine in terms of normal V6, V8, L6, etc. Trace the radiator hose (right side of radiatoras you are looking from the front of the engine) and you will find it leads to the "water outlet" on the thermostat housing. There are a total of 4 hoses attached to the Thermostat Housing. It is a black plastic (OEM) housing held onto the engine by 3 bolts. Note: ther are 3 Torx screws visible, they for the water outlet housing and can be worked on while the Thermostat Housing is off of the engine. Plastic can easily crack/score so be gentle whe removing the hoses and hardware. This housing is notorious for leaking even when a new gasket (O-Ring) is installed. I suggest dressing the housing mount surface with a small bead of grey RTV along with a new gasket prior to installing. Be sure to use only a small bead in an effort not to get excess into the housing or to foul the gasket.
