i think its right below the throttle body.......pull off all the intake, take out the battery and it prolly give u enough room......i dont know if you have to take off the throttle body to get at anything but yea its right there.......
it's a BITCH to get to, but ya, it's right below the throttle body, i think i took my TB off cause it made it easier but i had to buy a new gasket for it. i think at least.....
you dont have to pull anything but the t-stat housing if you use a wobble tip 1/4 drive extension, but the t-stat has to come out with the housing or you'll never get it out. i didnt remove anything and it took me about 30 mins to r&r my t-stat.
Haynes manuel says its a better idea to remove the TB. 1st time I had ever even done anything with my coolant system and got it done in 2 hrs by myself. Got me a good look hard working man scar on the hand too.
