Thanks brother. You so detail for information. Thanks for your kindly
I cannot understand why you don't have more subs. Your videos are really well done. No BS. Just well documented instructions.
Thanks! Share the video so people can see them :)
Wow! First video i clicked on. Thank you for such straight forward, no stupid gibberish, and i know exactly what to do. And you included everything with no missed steps!!
Nice straight to the point video. Thanks.
Seems like I’m loosing antifreeze from that area in my car. I thought there was a gasket on that thermostat case you just removed.... guess there is not. Now I wonder where my leak is coming from.
The thermostat has a gasket, that's what seals it. Do this, degrease the engine and see where the leak is coming from. Coolant will leave a dry powder type residue when it dries. Address it ASAP, coolant leaks are not good.
@@MrRangerZr1 I’m going to take it to the mechanic. I usually do this type of work myself but where I live the winter is brutal. Hopefully this won’t cost me much.
Could you remove the inside of the thermostat?
Great how-to video! Thanks for sharing! I have a 2013 CRV, how similar would mine be to the years you listed?
Same process! Same thermostat as well.
Hey great video...I've been contemplating replacing the Thermostat on my 09 CRV due to the fact that fan kicks in way too often (I think...) It this a good idea?
Fan Comes on automatically when the A/C compressor comes on. Otherwise it goes on when the coolant temp reaches a certain point.
What a satisfying squeek. Thanks, bro.
Hi mate. Thanks for the video. I have tried to change my thermostat on a Honda CRV 2008 2.0 i-VTEC and it's not in the same place as yours. My two hoses top and lower one are located on the right hand side of the bonnet. Where you think it could be located the thermostat? Thanks again
this car in the video is the north american spec.
just follow your hoses til you see the thermostat housing
What sizes do i need for the bolts? Ill be changing my wives thermostat after work today. Im sure ill find out by trying. Cant b no bigger than a 13 each bolt. But i could b wrong.
I mention all the bolt sizes in the video
@@MrRangerZr1 sorry for that. I was watching this on silent , whole house was sleep. I got the part , gna get at it soon. Big Ups to your video.
I don't have any way to but the Honda up. Can I change it thru the top
You don't need to raise the car, i raised it so I can film for you guys to watch.
@@MrRangerZr1 It's nearly impossible to swap out the tstat on the 4th gen CRV without raising the vehicle at least 8-10" in my experience...ramps or jack stands work. Otherwise, you can't get the necessary clearance to access the tstat, even with the splash shield completely removed.
If you live in the new England states, I recommend pb blasting those 10 mil bolts. Bolts broke coming off from corrosion. So I replaced the back of the thermostat housing also. And while replacing the back of the housing I broke the heater pipe cause it was corroded also. Fyi replace thermostat housing, back housing, and heater pipe that goes to it.
Video so helpful. Is it no need glue, packing seal or heat proof sealent. Just PnP usig bolt. Thanks for answer
No the rubber gasket does the sealing no glue needed
@@MrRangerZr1 so just plug n play after we got the new one. Thanks
Where is the thermostat for an Ford Ranger 2001
Near the throttle body
Can you help me with my honda crv 2009? when the temperature on the dashboard comes on, then the heater will work and if doesn't come on, it will not work.is it the thermostat?
May be the thermostat or air in the cooling system.
I have a 2007 CRV LX 4 cylinder with 100,000 miles. I’m going to change the coolant and I’m determining whether or not I should change the hoses, thermostat and even the water pump. There are no leaks and I haven’t had any issues to date. None of these items have ever been changed, so I’m not sure if I should replace any of these items. Thanks for any recommendations and the great videos!
This CRV at the time of the video had around 250k IIRC, and all the parts were original. These rarely fail, but if you don't mind doing the work doesn't hurt to change them out. I would change the coolant, thermostat, and hoses now, water pump you can leave until it starts making noise.
@@MrRangerZr1 Is that 250,000 miles?
@@starkeymorgan4142 yep, now has close to 300k.
@@MrRangerZr1 well .my crv is at 112. Looks like my pump should have a lot of life keft
@@starkeymorgan4142 Honda fuel pumps rarely go out
This might be sort of a dumb question, but how do you necessarily know when the thermostat needs to be changed outside of a potential interval? My 15’ Civic LX produces a slight burn smell through my vents when the heat is on (mid range-full heat). Does your Civic produce this too from time to time and is this an indication that it needs to be changed? Thanks in advance!
You usually change this when you're doing a timing belt service (this civic does not have) or water pump service, which is around 100k miles. The thermostat helps maintain the coolant temp, when it goes bad, it can cause overheating. The "burning" smell is normal. Just check the coolant level every month or so and look out for leaks.
Thank you for the comment, keep up the vids your content is great!
@@adansanches79 if you smell radiator fluid you have a small leak somewhere
1. On the dashboard you will notice that it takes a very long time to reach the normal temperature
2. In the winter you won't take off the jacket because you feel always cold
Question, how do you get to the nut that’s on top, can you get it from the bottom of the car ? Or from the top of the car
itsyurb0ylayy4 everything is done from the bottom.
How did you get the top bolt off? Any suggestions would help
What is the purpose of the wiring harness on the thermostat?
To hold the wire in place
@@MrRangerZr1 sorry, I meant that I thought that car thermostats were entirely mechanical. Is there a sensor in Honda thermostats, or what specifically does the wiring harness power or monitor?
@@Loopy_McLooperson it's not connected to the thermostat itself.
How do get that top bolt off of the thermostat ?
Take the hose off first if you can't get to it
@@MrRangerZr1 I already have the hose off I got the 2 bottom bolt off I just can't take the top bolt off and I also got the wire harness unhooked
@@nathan06m use various extensions to get to it
@@MrRangerZr1 is that how you got to it in this video?
@@nathan06m Yeah. It's not fun but you can do it.
