Nope, I was doing bunch of other stuff. replacing all fluids, changing some gaskets, check and see if there is an exhaust leak, etc. and I got some stuff to do tomorrow so I expect everything to be done on monday. (car on jack stand now, and its already dark outside)
this is my second time replacing the thermostat, damn for some reason its a bitch to get that housing off (for me). Grrr, cut myself a bit

Apparently mazda has an updated thermostat design as well which opens lower and flows better...
How easy is it to change the thermostat? The dealership wants 2hrs of labor to do it.

I'd say twenty on mine since I don't have the battery in the front. So, maybe around 30 to 45 min, then you gotta add hours if you run into any problems. The reason the dealer wants two hours is once they punch there card and take their good old time pulling it in then getting all their stuff ready, on top of talking to everyone else also it will already be an hour.
