I drive a 1999 Dodge Durango and need to change the thermostat...where is it located and how do I change it?

Im not sure where it is located or how to get to itI drive a 1999 Dodge Durango and need to change the thermostat...where is it located and how do I change it?
it's on top of the intake.... follow the upper radiator hose to the motor block, it will set right where the hose connects to the motor block. The hose neck connection covers the thermostat. 2 bolts should lift the hose neck to reveal the thermostat.



Hope this helps..... Good Luck =)I drive a 1999 Dodge Durango and need to change the thermostat...where is it located and how do I change it?
Raise the hood and follow the upper radiator hose, that is where the thermostat is. Depends on whats in its way for you to move out the way, then change.
if you,ll follow the top radiator hose down,,to the housing ,the thermostat is in under that housing,,you,ll need to drain off some of the anti freeze from it ,other wise it will run out on you ,,about a gallon will be enough to drain off of it,,then remove the housing,and clean the old gasket off of it,,and replace the thermostat,,don't over tighten the bolts that hold the housing on,,it will crack if you over-tighten it,,fill it back up,and your done,,check it good for leaks,,and that should be it,,good luck with it,,hope this help,s.,,happy new years also.
