Default thermostat location

hi everyone:

today i was driving the GS3 (1993) and the temp went up to near max...the water is in the overflow and is boiling...i believe the thermostat is shot...the question is...where is the thermostat and how can i remove it?

THANKS,
Kevin

if you are standing in front of the car, look on motor dead straight. then lean towards on the left side of the motor, where the exhaust piping are located. gradually look for the coolant hose around that area, and follow it towards the motor block. you will see two nuts which are 14mm, i think, loosen them, take it out and you will see the thermostat. if it's the first time you will take it off, it will be quite difficult.

hope that helps.
