Overheating! help
Ok, today i got home from the sushi place and i glanced down at the temp gauge and it was maxed out! I turned it off, let it cool a little and filled it back up. I unplugged the battery for 30min to reset the comp. (i never did when i cleaned the TB a couple weeks ago) then i started it and waited. Around 3/4 my fan kicked on, it looked like it was going to cool, but then just started rising more. any ideas guys?

Well..... how about the usual stuff: any coolant in the radiator? If not , why not? leaks: hoses, water pump. If full of coolant, has system been purged? Got the air out from the high point air taps (brass screws on 1/2" heater hose, and thermostate housing). Possiby stuck thermostat.

im thinking stuck thermo. I was only losing water after overheat. and it was throught the reservior overfill. So i did replace the thermo with a new one. It seems to have fixed the problem. Now which other bleed do i use? i used the one by the water neck.Comment

Use both. Open each one seperately, and several times to completely purge the air bubbles.Originally posted by 94TAonASSASINS
