Hi,

Replacing the thermostat on this vehicle really isn't too hard. You will need a few things when doing it. Make sure to have a container you can fit under the radiator to collect coolant. Also, have a few shop towels and general tooling prepared in advance.

To get you started, here is a link that shows in general how to replace one. You can use this as a guide.

If you look at the pics below, they provide the directions specific to your vehicle.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have other questions.

Take care,

Joe
