• Q: How to Maintain Your Thermostat on 2003 Dodge Neon?

  A: Begin by making sure the cooling system is drained so the thermostat level is reached or dropped below. After that, take out the coolant recovery/reserve system hose as well as the radiator upper hose. After that, remove the thermostat/engine outlet connector bolts and take out the thermostat and O-ring assembly. Before installation, tidy the sealing areas and add the new thermostat assembly to the thermostat housing/outlet connector, making sure the vent goes inside the groove in the cylinder head. Secure the housing/outlet connector for the thermostat onto the cylinder head and tighten the screws to 12.5 Nm (110 in. lbs.). After you have done all these steps, replace the upper hose to the radiator and link the coolant recovery/reserve system hose before starting to fill the cooling system.
