Is it difficult to change the thermostat? Sometimes my temp gauge moves and gives me hot air. Sometimes it does not budge and gives me lukewarm air. The cold is coming to Michigan already! Could this be a sticky thermostat?

The cold is coming to Michigan already! Could this be a sticky thermostat? Thanks! Quickest way to check is to remove the radiator cap and warm up your car. Once the fan kicks in. Look into the rad cap hole and see if the coolant is flowing. If it's flowing then it's opening up. If it's not flowing then it's bad. To replace the thermostat on our st204 isn't hard. It just sucks that the alternator and oil filter is in the way. You'll have to remove the oil filter for sure to get to it. The alternator is just going to be annoying but you can get by without removing it. -------------------- |
