I can not locate the thermostat in the car to change it out. Where I thought it was is incorrect.

Trace the upper radiator hose to the mounting area on the intake manifold. Loosen the hose clamp on the manifold end of the hose and remove the hose. Pull the thermostat out of the intake manifold.

These will help.

• The thermostat on a Toyota RAV4 is located inside the engine coolant container. To reach the thermostat, open your hood and locate the coolant filler cap. Open the cap and then drain enough coolant so that the coolant level is below the thermostat housing. You should be able to identify the thermostat as a circular cap attached to the inside of the coolant container
  

Hi.

1. Locate the thermostat housing. The housing can be found following the radiator hose toward the engine. The housing is located on the engine.
2. Remove the three screws that hold the thermostat housing.
3. Replace the thermostat.

Note. The thermostat spring goes toward the engine, the other side toward the radiator.

Here a diagram:

i find the best way to locate a thermostat on any car is to locate the top hose from the radiator and follow that to the engine when you get to the engine, where it connects to should be where the thermostat is housed...hope this helped

If you have a V8 the thermostat is located under the coolant inlet tube. The tube is located on top of the engine, in the front about center. The thermostat is hard to change. Locate the upper radiator hose on your radiator and follow it to the engine block it is located on the top front part of your engine and you must lean over the front and look down onto the block to see the thermostat housing.

GM Corsica/Beretta 1988-1996 Repair Guide
The thermostat is located inside a housing on the back of the cylinder head. It is not necessary to remove the radiator hose from the thermostat housing when removing the thermostat.

CAUTION When draining the coolant, keep in mind that cats and dogs are attracted by ethylene glycol antifreeze, and are quite likely to drink any that is left in an uncovered container or in puddles on the ground. This will prove fatal in sufficient quantity. Always drain the coolant into a sealable container. Coolant should be reused unless it is contaminated or several years old.

go to www.autozone.com and look in the compounts list for that year car and it will tell you excatly wher it is located.

Most thermostats are located in or near the intake manifold area. Locate your upper radiator hose, then from the hose/radiator connection, follow the hose backwards to where it connects to. The goose neck or mating part, has to be removed. The thermostat is usually located inside the port. You may have to remove other covers and or parts to gain access to the goose neck assembly. You also have to let the car cool and drain the coolant before performing this task.

the thermostat is located at the end of the top radiator hose that runs near the radiator cap. follow the hose and at the end is your thermostat housing. the thermostat is inside the housing. Be sure to replace with same degree thermostat and in the same position you take it off.

FOR EITHER ENGINE(2.2I4 OR 2.7LV6) THE THERMOSTAT IS LOCATED ON THE BACK OF THE ENGINE ABOVE THE TRANSMISSION BELL HOUSING, AND NO IT IS NOT VERY HARD TO CHANGE. YOU WILL HOWEVER NEED TO REMOVE THE AIR INTAKE TUBE AND POSSIBLY THE AIR FILTER BOX TO GAIN ACCESS
