Re: thermostat

Newbie, check the date....post is over 7 years old.....

But you are correct in your procedure......I wouldn't remove the crossover pipe, for the main reason, that in all likely hood, those studs will snap on you, creating more problems.....removing the throttle body is the way to go....do it on a cold engine, and have a replacement throttle body gasket handy....

And yes, now would be the time for a coolant flush......
