Thermostat

The thermostat is installed inside the thermostat housing, which is located in the radiator hose above the engine. This hose descends and connects with the right side of the engine cylinder. When the engine is cold and coolant temperatures are low, the thermostat remains closed, allowing antifreeze to remain inside the engine. This allows the engine to warm to operating temperatures.
