you definatly popped a hose, how would a thermostat sticking dump coolant on the windshield????

 

so if he changes the poped hose and doesnt check the thermostat
wouldnt the stuck thermo just pop it again cause its not letting the water cyclee threw.
yaeh changing the thermo is a 10 minute job
and its very cheap

 

Hope you didnt warp the head or anything overheating the motor.

 

Were is the thermostat at !

its on the block near the passenger side. near the distributor, it has a hose running to it (obviosly) this is the lower radiator hose.

there are a couple grounds on it.

its like 2 bolts to undo, then pop out the thermostat, PAY ATTENTION TO HOW IT COMES OUT.

put new one in. bolt up bolts. fill/bleed coolant.
