Step 16 may well be your biggest stumbling block.  The bolt is awkward to remove but even more so to replace...

And the link pipe can and does get stuck making it very difficult to remove and the 'stat cannot be replaced without removing the link pipe first.

i just read the maintenance guide and feel very intimidated at taking bits of the engine off. i thought it would just be a bit on side of engine and a simple swap out!

thanx for help
