Thermostat Location

Post by bjk »

Howdy, can somebody post a pic of where the thermostat is? I've found a few posts describing, but would like to be sure before a friend and I replace it.

Cheers. :)

Follow the lower radiator hose to where it attaches to the engine. The dome shaped bit next to where it joins is where the thermostat is. Should be 2 x 12mm bolts (I think).

    I think we were looking in the right spot before, but weren't sure. So it's not the one right below the radiator cap, but to the right of that?
