I just want to change the thermostat...

Post by ONGAS » Thu Aug 21, 2008 10:16 pm

WHAT THE HELL......Do i have to take the whole inlet manifold off to change the thermostat or can I just unbolt the housing and lift it up to do it? BTW its JAMO'S '94 Liberty Heritage Wagon (EJ22). :confused:

It is a long way from the manifold to the thermostat. The thermostat is located on the engine side of the bottom radiator hose.
