thermostat?

[westernb4]

Yesterday my NSX took three to four times the usual time to warm up, and the temp gauge never quite reached my usual operating temperature. Sounds like my thermostat might be stuck open (I read the FAQ!). I don't have a service manual. Where is the thermostat located? Is it a difficult repair? Will I lose enough coolant while replacing it to require bleeding the cooling system? Any gasket replacements required? Thanks in advance for advice.

If you plan on working on your car yourself (and it sounds like you do), you should get a service manual. The factory service manual (the one that Helm publishes) is VERY good. In fact, I've had BMW gearheads look at it and wish that their own service manuals were as detailed and comprehensive.
