THERMOSTAT

Hi:
If you follow the upper radiator hose back to the engine, it will end at the thermostat housing. The t-stat is under the housing.

What is the location of the thermostat on the engine. Is there a site availabel to see a picture of it and how the area around it looks?

I need an engine size
and I will try to get you a picture
most likely at the front of the engine if you follow upper hose to engine and thermostat housing

WHERE IS THE THERMOSTAT LOCATED ON MY 2001 INTREPID? AND HOW DO YOU GET TO IT?

Where the lower hose attaches to the engine.You need to lift and support the car, remove the skid pan and you will be able to see it. Great design huh? If you can find a shop to do it at a reasonable price, I would do it

Where is the thermostat located on the 2001 Intrepid? Is this something I can change myself easily?

Hi:
Follow the upper radiator hose back the the engine. It will end at the t-stat housing. The t-stat is in the housing and can be easily replaced by removing the housing. If you need help, let me know.

Thank you for reply. I have found housing unit, how do i change thermostat. Do I remove hose, after loosenging 2 bolts? Any special instructions? Thanks.

Hi:
First drain the coolant from the radiator or you'll have a mess. Next, remove the housing and the t-stat will be under it. Before replacing the new one, pay special attention as to the direction the old one is sitting in. After removing everything, make sure to remove the old gasket from both the housing and the intake. Make sure the surfaces are clean and tight before replacing everything. Just reverse the sequence.

If you run into trouble or have other questions, let me know.

thermostat location 2000 intrepid 2.7L

There you go its located on the left side of the engine-see below

I have had a slight leak in my cooling system coming from whatever this picture is of. I thought it was the thermostat housing, I bought a new thermostat, went to unbolt this and tried loosening the bleed valve. Well, when applying torque to this bleed valve, the cover popped off. There is no fasteners, so, do I just "JB Weld" it back in place or do I need to buy a replacement (and if so... what is "it" called?) And, since this doesn't house the thermostat... where do I find it?

The thermostat is located on the lower drivers side of the block below the alternator. Its a pain to get at

rasmataz,

Thank you for directing me to the thermostat. Any chance you could tell me what it was that I broke (in the picture) or, if I can just use JB Weld (or some other form of epoxy) to stick that cover back on?

Thank you

Where is the location of the thermostat location on 1999 2.7L and how is it removed? Seen some web links that say its on the top of the motor in the middle and some others that say it's under the alternator.

It says move aside the alternator to help.access the thermostat.

That means I have to remove the serpentine belt as well? I'm in a hotel parking lot.

Also, the temp gauge never went above half way but steam was coming from under the hood.
Thermostat or water pump?

WHERE IS THE THERMOSTAT LOCATED

Here's a thermostat location for a 2.7L and 3.2L engine:

Sounds like you have a leak. The system needs to be pressure tested and I seriously doubt you are going to repair thing in any parking lot.

I.agree with wrench tech sounds like.a.leak.was it the steam.coming from.the.cap.you might have a bad radiator cap.

The thermostat on this one is a real bear. I don't see why he's changing anyway.

I. know doesn't sound.like.it's even.overheating.

I have a 1998 dodge intrepid ES 3.2 and I need to know where the thermostat is located. Could u help me out with a diagram or something...thanks

The engine thermostat is located in a water box, formed in the front of the lower intake manifold. This thermostat has an air bleed located in the thermostat flange. https://www.2carpros.com/kpages/auto_repair_manuals_alldata.htm

I want to chane the thermostat, and I am not sure of it's location. I think it's on the upper house leading into the engine. That fitting seems to have a nipple on it. Do you know what that is also?

Thanks!

M name is Ray and I just turned 16. For my bithday my parents gave me there old car. It has been running hot and I called around and found out i needed a thermostat. After buying one, no one on the block knows where it goes. I don't have the money to take it to a shop. My question is where does the thermostat go and does anyone know where I can find a diagram of the thermostat location that might help. Thank you.

it is located at the end of the top radiator hose at the top of the motor, where the hose is clamped to the housing. go to a parts store and ask if they have the time to come out to your car and show you where is goes and how to do it, other than that got to the store and look at a haynes manual. please don't try to repair this without the motor being cold.....good luck
