Time needed to change 98xlt thermostat?

[astrochimp]

I don't have my Haynes manual with me..but I want to change the thermostat tomorrow morning (temp is running high, check gauge light on, Rpm's high at idle, etc...)

Just wondering how long it should take me.

If you are just changing the t-stat no more than a half hour. I would suggest doing a coolant flush at the same time since you are going to lose a decent amount of coolant. It took me less than 2 hours to change my t-stat and do a flush.
