Immediate Help Needed! Thermostat V6
I know the info is probably in here somewhere, but I have been under that hood for about two hours and a little too irritated to research.
How the heck do your undo the bottom bolt of the thermostat housing?
I admit that i'm barely mechanically inclined, but I know changing the stat can be done by a home mechanic and place a book in front of me and i'll follow along. HAYNES IS A FREAKIN' JOKE. They only say to disconnect two hoses from the housing and undo the bolts. No where does it mention the freakin' shield blocking the way, nor does it even show it in the illustration. In the illustration, you would think that entire side of the engine bay was desolate.
And another thing bugging me is the coolant system flush process. I drained the radiator, but then it says to drain from the block???? I saw no drain plugs on the block except for oil. And they also have an "drawn" illustration of sticking the water hose in the top of the radiator and let it flush. WE HAVE NO OPENINGS IN THE TOP OF OUR RADIATORS, SO WHERE DO I STICK THE HOSE???. Again I'm sorry, but can anyone give me the step-by-step on what to do. I'm about to go and TRY to change the tranny fluid. I would just love to accomplish something with this thing today
