thermostat location on b20

[blacknightteg]

my engine is just running cold so i im assumin the thermostat is stuck open, im going to replace it. but i need to know the location of it. is it on the exit hose of the radiator on the top of the block or the bottom hose?

connected to the metal water line that runs under the intake manifold...

thought so. thanks, i just wanted to make sure.

At the end of the lower radiator hose, in between the intake manifold and the engine.

the bottom radiator hose where it connects to the block. this isn't the one for a b20, but its verry similar.

remove the 3(i think) bolts and take it off. the therm is on the inside. just rem how it goes it.

just take the 2 10mm bolts out with hose on pull on hose and put in new thermo in and gasket then re assemble. and on some the ground may be on there and some are on back of housing. no need to remove hoses.
