got a p0128, just did my thermostat.
the above idea for the transfer pump works excellent. i barely dripped anything; i could probably have done this job in my street clothes.
one lesson i learned while doing mine: be sure to lube up the o-rings and/or align the thermostat body very carefully; i cut two o-rings during installation and discovered it only after letting the car warm up and finding a very noticeable leak. got to R&R the intake manifold a second time. that said, having done it twice now, i find R&R of the intake manifold very easy. all hose clamps can be accessed with an ~6' socket extension. the hardest part of the entire job is cleaning off the old gasket material from the housing and block.
