I purchased a replacement thermostat for my son's 1995 SL2. Replacement
instructions from Autozone.com say to use the tool provided with the
thermostat for removal and installation yet the thermostat was purchased
from Autozone, had no tool and they didn't know anything about it. Do I
need a "tool"? Thanks

All you need is a 10mm socket to remove the neck from the engine. Other than that the thermostat comes off the housing by instruction indicated above.Edited by: Low Saturn
