Motoring Overheating problem in 1993 Toyota Carina Auto Car.?

The needle on the temperature guage on my carina car is going above half way before the cooling fan kicks in. Does anyone know where the thermostat is situated in the engine. Car is a 1993 model, is automatic, has no leaks and had a new rad fitted 18 mts ago. Goeslike a dream but am worried about the temp. guage. I need car for my job. Thanks.

It might be better to have your car checked out by a mechanic. Could be the thermostat as you say, could also be the water pump or head gasket. It is an old car and if it is going well it is worth doing the job right.
