Holden Vectra over heating !!!

[tyson_georgie_vy_ute]

hey got a holden vectra 98 2ltr and just brought it with a blown head gasket just fixed it all up and got a thermo stat at a wreckers and tested it and put it in because new ones are 120 so yeah but drives fine the temp sits around 80 to 90 but sometimes it goes write up to the red and turn it off for about 5mins and start it up and drive off and temp starts to go down to normal only happened twice in a month and just before hills the fans are working but only kick in about 90 so does anyone knows whats going on !!!!!!!!

Sounds like an air lock in your cooling system causing the gauge to read high.

Did you bleed it properly?

[tyson_georgie_vy_ute]

98 Vectra... Try driving it off a cliff, will cause you less headaches

might need to try a radiator specialist. could require a cooling system flush.
