I need to install a new thermostat for a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Where is it located on the vehicle?

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!
