Great thanks, I thought that you had to drain the system and then take out the Viscous coupling before you could do anything, many thanks
As I said in my post it's a TD5 year 2000.
The thermostat is not on top of the engine unfortunately but at the bottom of the radiator and you have to drain the system then take out the cooling fan viscous coupling,then out with the cooling fan lower coupling etc
.......that was why I wondered if there were any shortcuts

Are you sure about that?
If you lay underneath it you should be able to do it without all the grief of taking everything off. Unfortunately a side effect is that yer gonna get wet when you pull the pipes off.Are you sure about that?
Yeah positive I've had a good look with the top cover off
.........ah well better get the cossie out then
