where is the the thermostat located in the engine

The thermostat is on the right side of the engine when facing the engine from the front(drivers side). It is under the air duct. It is a difficult job to replace, you must remove the duct, the air cleaner housing, and the black pipe above the thermostat housing so you can get your hands at the bolts. Even though the housing is slotted, the bottom bolt must be removed.
