i think the thermostat in my 2nd gen integ just crapped out on me. pretty sure i need to replace this part. does anyone know how to do it to this car? or any car if its a relatively easy and universal procedure? any good sites on the net where i can find instructions on trouble shooting car problems? T.I.A.....

mods: sorry, i know its off topic, but i need to fix this asap...thanks...

Follow the lower radiator hose to the back of the motor. It will end up at the thermostat housing. Use pliers to unhook the hose clamp. Then pull out the hose from the housing. Be careful there will be fluid spilling. There are 2 10Mill bolts on the housing. Remove the blots and pull the front housing off and inside is the thermostat. Change it and reverse the process to put it back in.
