1994 Corolla

Hey,

Another non Ford question (sorry, but you guys are just too good to bother asking anywhere else)

My co-worker at work asked me if I could change her thermostat on her 1994 Toyota Corolla. I don't normally touch that junk but I'm a nice guy and she is liable to get ripped to shreds at a garage (very dumb blonde hehe)

Anyway its -25 outside and I have no haynes book for her car (nor do I plan on getting one)

Could someone tell me how quick this would be and where its located? As I said -25 outside and I have no garage...so 2 mins out there trying to poke around with gloves off feels like 2 days.

(-25 is without windchill its damn cold here)

Thanks in advance,
You guys rock.



ps. if it makes you laugh my "free" car I was given by parents (1987 Buick LeSabre) drove off on the back of a tow-truck today, doesn't start. tranny slips between 2/3 and most of the power windows dont work)

It was saftied and sold 3 weeks ago heh.

Where've you been?

The best answer I can give you is follow the top rad hose to the engine. If there is a "spout", it would probably come off with a 10 mm socket. Then, it should be under the removed spout.

Other than that, I don't know what else to tell you.

Thanks I'll check into that when I see her next, should be a 2 min job from the front of the car then right? Don't need to climb around in the slush under the car?

I've been around...I can't drive my truck I'm going to have to drive this stupid buick or some other car really soon...Coming here depresses me...I want a bigger truck not a stupid car.

But I am going to have to commute 250km's min./day 5-7 days a week as soon as we move...and I figured it out at costing me about 1000$/month in gas in truck I can handle the 300$ a month I go through now but seriously.

So I have to drive a car which I hate more then anything, I may even get a smaller car...Saddens me.


Anyway once I finish school and my business is running at 100% then I will be truckin again.
