Quick T-stat replacement question
Eh so how much do I want to drain the radiator before? And then just, pull of housing bolts, remove t-stat replace in same position (I guess also drill 1/16th hole above arrow but my replacement doesn't have an arrow.. should be clear though), bolt back up, top off coolant, then bleed system? is that all or am I missing something, need to remove any hoses? Sorry I know this is basic, i've never touched the cooling system except for the fan clutch. M30 engine by the way

No need to drain, that runs out anyway a little bit only. Info on my website under evansweb on the site of Jon Evans how to replace.
No need to drill a hole.
Bleeding: see Gale's website, link also on my site.
