Where is the thermostat and water pump located?

Car: Acura, Legend, 1992     -    Back to Fix-It    -    Acura Legend Repair Manuals

Q.I have a 1992 Acura Legend w/ V6. Where is the thermostat and water pump located? Car is getting hot and I have noticed a small water leak under front of car.

thanks
Charlie.

AnswerThermostat is just below the throttle body:
Drain the cooling system and remove the lower radiator hose from the thermostat housing.
Remove the thermostat housing bolts, the housing and the thermostat.
Clean the gasket mounting surfaces.
To install, use new gaskets and reverse the removal procedures; install the thermostat's spring end toward the engine. Torque the housing bolts to 9 ft. Lbs. (12 Nm).
Refill and bleed the cooling system
