i just replaced my water pump on the trans am. when i was filling it back up with coolant, it only took about half of the amount of what is required. and now the temperature chills just past the 210 mark, it was never that high, unless i got stuck in traffic on a 95 degree day.
when i let some air out of the system, using the bleeder screw on one of the heater hoses(not the one on the thermostat neck) i tightened it and the srew head broke off....
so is it the thermostat is stuck shut? or is there still alot of air in the system, which wont allow anymore antifreeze to go in?
anyhelp is appreciated.
thanks

o and the thermostat is only about a month old, and maybe 2 hours worth of driving old. i went to get the stock 180 degree, but they only had a 195 degree....would this have anything to do with it?
