1.yes low temp was the only problem.
2.the thermostat was not near the pump or the timibelt area,it was
behind the power steering pump.if you follow the lower radiator hose from
the bottom up it leads to the plastic housing that bolts to the
block,inside it is the thermostat.
3.it was wear and age.dont forget the housing is plastic.and gets very
hot and cools down constantly.
4.if you get the thermostat from the dealer the
sensor is on the housing.

hopefully this helps.

Yes thanks, that's a useful set of answers. I think I'll go buy a
thermostat in the next week or so, and try to make do with the existing
housing.

Cheers, Robert
