1# so i took the rad cap off..
started up the car and the coolant didnt go down at all. Let it run for about 10 mins It actually started to oveflow the radiator and spill out. #2 the head hose was scorching hot and the hose that come off the thermostat was almost dead cold. #3 fans never came on either. wtf ?? -------------------- ![]() |
