Follow the top radiator hose from the radiator to where it attaches onto the engine. The thermostat is inside the housing that the hose attaches to. Remove the radiator hose at thermostat housing. Remove the housing. There are usually two bolts. The thermostat is inside. Scrape off all old gasket material and clean the housing. Install new thermostat and gasket. Be sure not to overtighten the bolts on the housing. The housing is usually cast metal and is easily cracked or broken if the bolts are overtightened. Hope this helps and best wishes.
