I would generally drain the whole system, including the radiator, then refill with a 50% solution of water and antifreeze. I believe this is the standard procedure for most autos. Fill the engine and the overflow tank. Run the engine till at temperature, then shut down for an hour. By then, the overflow tank will be low if not empty, and need to be refilled. As you use the vehicle, you may need to refill the tank from time to time. as for the amount of AF, hard to tell, just mix a 50-50 solution and add it to the radiator/tank till full, then proceed as noted above. I suggest mixing the solution first, then begin to add.

How to change a thermostat in a 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix

You may need to drain a little of the antifreeze to get level below the thermostat level. Make sure you have something to catch the antifreeze and discard it properly.
Follow the water outlet from the radiator and where it goes into the intake manifold. Remove the two bolts one on each side to remove the thermostat housing. It is not necessary to take the hose off of the the housing. Remove the thermostat and make sure that both surfaces that meet when you put back together are clean and free of debris. You should get the gasket along with a new thermostat and replace both. Make sure you only use DEXCOOL to replace any antifreeze that was lost.

2002 pontiac grand prix,no running lights,noblower motor,no back window defogger

I've been thru this mess... Replace the ignition switch (not the key portion) located inside the steering column. Don't waste your money replacing the blower motor and/or blower resistor. This is a common issue on this make/model Pontic.
