Re: Location of thermostat
Well, it's located in the thermostat housing, of all places.
 Typically, follow the top radiator hose back to the motor, and where it connects is the t-stat housing. Remove the hose, then the housing, and there's the t-stat.

Re: Location of thermostat
I thought it was in the exact center of the thermostat gasket!

Re: Location of thermostat
Gaskets?
We don't need no stinking gaskets!

Re: Location of thermostat
Without knowing better, I would have guessed the lower radiator hose. I wonder why the upper hose on this motor?
