My thermostat is broken well more accuratly it is having some problems so I need to change it. I was wondering if anybody can give me a good link to a site that will explain the process of replacing it or if anybody has the steps required to properly replace the thermostat I would be most gratefull. Thanks a lot.

Well I've never actually replaced the thermostat, but it's not hard, or shouldn't be. Follow the upper radiator hose to the block (if you're standing in front of the engine it's on the left hand side) and that's your thermostat housing, open it up and take out the old one, replace with new one, new seal, and sealent and you should be good to go.

hope that helps.
