1. Disconnect the battery negative cable.
2. Disconnect lower radiator hose at the t-stat housing water inlet. Have a bucket underneath to catch some coolant. Also a towel for dripping coolant. Tie a twine at end of hose so hose in upright position. 3. Loosen the 12mm mounting bolt and remove t-stat housing. 4. Install new T-stat. Position the jiggle pin at 12 oclock. 5. I used Gates T-Stat 82 degree 180F with gasket. 6. Folllow manual for tightening torque or about 37 ft.-lb. Reinstall radiator hose. About 10-15 minutes. Hope this helps. |
