I need basic instruction on how to change the thermostat. The engine is over heating or not engaging the heater after warm. My thought is hte thermostat is sticking.

You will need to remove the rad shroud to make room, follow the upper hose to the front of the engine. the bolts for the themostat housing are hard to see because they are tucked up under the front engine cover. you will need to drain your antifreeze out and remove the housing bolts.
