Here are the steps to locate the thermostat on a 2004 Chevy Colorado with an Inline 5 motor:
1.) Begin by locating the thermostat housing. The thermostat housing is located on the front side of the engine, just below the intake manifold.
2.) Once you have located the thermostat housing, you will need to remove it. To do this, you will need to loosen the bolts surrounding its housing.
3.) Once the bolts have been loosened, you will need to carefully pry off the housing using a flathead screwdriver or other suitable tool.
4.) Once the thermostat housing has been removed, you will see a small, cylindrical object inside. This is the thermostat.
5.) To remove the thermostat, you will need to use a pair of pliers to grip it and pull it out.
6.) Be mindful not to drop the thermostat as it may be difficult to retrieve.
