Replacing Thermostat

[BenSwanson]

Could anyone give me pointers on replacing thermostat on my 93? I think it is relatively easy, right? Is it located right in the hose that runs into the radiator cap?

If you look on the driver's side of the engine bay you will see your upper radiator hose. Follow that hose to the block and you will find the thermostat housing. There are two nuts that hold it in place. One at the 12:00 and one at teh 6:00 position. The small one is easy to drop so be careful when taking it out. I dropped mine the first time I replaced the thermostat and had to go to the hardware store and buy a couple new ones. When you put in the new thermostat make sure the jiggle valves are at the 12:00 position.
EDIT:If you go to www.shotimes.com under the "Care and Feeding" section, you will find some instructions and pictures if that helps you out even more.
