You can follow these steps:
* Locate the top radiator hose and trace it to the location where the hose is connected to the Impala's engine. Remove the clamp that holds the hose onto the cover with a screwdriver.
* Remove the thermostat cover by removing the two bolts that hold the cover onto the intake manifold. Locate the thermostat cover gasket and remove it.
* You can easily remove the thermostat from the inside of the intake manifold by pulling directly up on it.
* Place the new thermostat into the intake manifold with the correct end facing out of the intake then, place the new gasket onto the intake manifold and replace the thermostat cover
