As it says, where abouts is th thermostat on a 305 tpi? I need to check mine and have no idea where it is. A picture would be nice.

Thanks for the time

Is this a joke?
I could understand having a hard time locating it on some forien cars, But seriously its located at the frount top of the manifold the upper radiator hose is conected to a housing with two bolts in it. Its in between the housing and the manifold so unbolt the housing and there it is. If you need to change it make sure the spring side goes down into the manifold and ther ^ shaped side faces up.

Why would you think it was a joke? Not everyone knows everything. That is the whole basis for this message board's existence. If you HONESTLY and SINCERELY thought it was a joke, then maybe you should not have replied and simply ignored the post.

To be honest Omar, If someone doesent know simple tech stuff like wheres a thermostate located, they should leave the work to a professinal. I would hate to see some one screw up thier ride over a small problem. The only reason I replied to this post is because there might just be some people out there that would screw with RMK and tell him or her alot of BS before a moderator caught it. Example "clean valves by dumping sand into the intake" Sure this board was designed to help but thats not going to stop people from being A**Holes!

 

Under the thermostat housing. Don't check it, replace it. It's a cheap part that is very important.

Super, I just wanted to clarify that I wasnt trying to flame or be rude. I just think alot of people shy away from the simple questions that they are afraid to ask for fear of someone ridiculing them. THEN, after failing to ask and then attempting a job with little to no knowledge is when the damage really occurs.

When I bought my IROC-Z 8 years ago, I wasnt even a "car" person. I just liked the way it looked. I couldnt even change my own oil. My dad had to show me. Now, 8 years later and too many mods that have made me broke, I am thankful to my shop manual and this board that i can attack and solve 99% of my problems.

Again, no flames intended.

I meant freedom of speech in a good way. Of course you still have to follow the rules. We still follow rules. I just meant you can ask simple to complex questions on the message boards. No harm intended ede !
