Where is thermostat?

Hi guys, I have a 1992 Accord LX and I was wondering where the thermostat is located. I cannot seem to find it. Any pics would also help. Thanks.

on the v6 model it is located just to the left of the battery , follow the upper radiator house
to the engine to locate the houinsg cover.

before you do any work to it, you have to drain your cooling system, be carefull doing any work in and around this system.

you can get an idictation of its function, if your heaters are not putting out heat in a normal time period then its probably stuck open.


if the upper radiator hose is is not hot and the engine is then its stuck closed.

either condition would mean replacement.

hope this helps

Thanks for the info. It is the 4 cylinder model however. Does this make a difference? Because I followed the upper radiator hose and didn't find it.

similar area on the four cyilnder, follow the upper raqdiator hose to the engine block
there is a thermosat housing cover there, losen the hose


a few dollars are well spent on the repair manual from haynes..

has step by step instructions and illustrations

it's not off the top radiator hose. The thermostat is on the back side of the motor. Follow the long hose from the bottom of the radiator to the back side of the engine and there it will be. I own a 92 accord
