Find the Big hose on the TOP of the RRADIATOR----follow to the other end
USUALLY the thermostat is under that "HOUSING" at the other end
Remember to slowly remove it---observe where the gasket is located in reference to the 'STAT (one goes before the other)
And most importantly read the 'STAT----This side toward WHATEVER!
Normally the fat spring goes toward the motor and the "POINTY" side is pointin' toward the hose!
