Winter is here in OH and my Ford is not putting out enough heat. I suspect the thermostat. Can i change it myself or do I need to take it in to the dealer?

you can change it yourself, all you need is a few screwdrivers and a few sockets and you can have it out. 2 or 3 bolts hold it on. need a new gasket though and besure to clean it good.

and if the vehicle isnt overheating or not warming up dont suspect the thermostat for your heat deficency.
