Aight i gotta put my new thermostat in today, and i need a web site where i can find info about replacing it. I have a Honda CRX but any integra sites may help too. Help me out here! And dont go tell me to get a book, i dont have any money, im poor.

 

The housing should be located on the block where the lower radiator hose connection is. Drain your coolant first. Remove the housing. replace the thermostat, replace the housing, refill the coolant and then:

wow someone who finally helped me. Thanks soo soo much!

 

On most cars its just two bolts and a gasket needed to replace. Nothing major Just trace back the radiator hoses to the engine block and you will see the thermostat housing. Good Luck.

 

Do i have to like absolutly have to replace the gasket? agg more $ down the drain! lol.. where can i get one from?

 

The gasket will cost you about a dollar from any parts store. It is kind of bitch to get to on the ZC. It is on the back of the block. You will also need to bleed the system to get any air bubbles out. The bleeder screw is on the thermostat housing. That will be the fun part.

 

SO i basically have to reach around the backside to take the thermostat out? Hmm so i do need to replace the gasket? What about sealant, someone said something about putting sealant on the thermostat?
