Re: How To Replace Thermostat 2.5L (1999)

Re: How To Replace Thermostat 2.5L (1999)
Hi guys -
One lingering question. The guy at Autozone told me capacity for the coolant was 3 gallons 50/50 mix, so I bought three gallons. I have the first 2 gallons in there, and there is still...

Update #2 -
Checked on it after about an hour of shutting it off the last time - reservoir is empty! So I guess the first gallon worked its way into the system. I'm still fuzzy on how to best...

Deadeye -
Did you do this on your 2009? Getting ready to do this on my 2007-- wondering if Robert's pics were close or close enough. :)
Thanks!

Re: Air horn - regular horn
Ahhh...great info - thank you! So I thought I was hearing the fuse getting ready to trip again or something in that neighborhood -- now I get why the noise is really coming from the SJB. Thanks!
