Like removing the Exhaust to replace the Alternator on a Ford Probe. Or that what the Book and Mechanic said. The next time it went out, 1yr later, all I had to do was Move the Exhaust a 1/2 inch with a bit of persuasion and Jam the Alt up into place. Took me 1/2 hour to change the Alt. Took the Mechanic 2hours ( by the book)

Yes. As I am getting older, I find my patience is wearing thinner. Or is the cars I have to work on now? An old 60s V8 water pump change was easy. When I did a water pump change in a Saturn, it was 2 bolts from the top, 2 bolts thru the wheel well, (remove the tire) and 2 bolts from under the car. My back wasn't happy snugging the bolts down on the gasket.

Thermostats should not be this difficult to get to and this repair shouldn't cost anywhere near $400 - $500 dollars. They are cheap and in the past, very easy to change yourself. Also, the dealership mechanics work on these vehicles all the time and know the ins and outs and can do this very quickly.

I have changed thermostats many times to japanese car's and they were always stuck in open position. Maybe those parts are designed that way so engine doesn't overheat and possibly get damaged.

Thanks Scotty. my silverado recently spit out 13 codes, and ran poorly recently. Looking at the symptems, and using a little logic, I spray cleaned the MAF sensor, and all the codes went awsy, and the truck runs great. Look for what will cause all the problems then take action.
