dam it lol sorry mate read this totally wrong!!!! my bad lol as other reply thermostat is easy as hell to sort out dont know why i thought it read head gasket!!! when you take the housing off take the new seal and smear some hylamar gasket sealant around it helps to seal it a little better sorry again

hi, i think these are quite straight forward id say go get a haynes manual and follow that through, you have to remove the cambelt, viscous fan, front grill, cams, push-rods, inlet and exhaust manifolds remove the valves and guides etc then get the head crack and pressure tested.
if you aint pretty savvy with a spanner get someone to do it for you as itl just be a pain from start to finish and you'l end up having to replace pushrods if the cambelt snaps!!!!!

not sure but does this have a big plastic housing,a long time since i done one of these,think it is in the shape of a big nut,got to check for cracks in this housing,cant think that it was too bad to do good luck
