coolant

when u flush the radiator and block do u fill it back up with just coolant or half coolant and half water

It depends on the concentration of the coolent you use. For concentrate I would use 5-6litres and the rest is water.

You might want to change the thermostat if you haven't changed it.

Yeah if she is runnin hot make sure do the thermostat and also make sure u bleed the air out as that can cause it to overheat as it can keep a air pocket caught in the hose's.....

how much are thermostats?
and how do u bleed the air out

[calais_cruzin]

themostats arnt too much bout 20 bucks max....there is a little screw on the hose mount for thermostat at the bak of motor....the hose that runs from left side of radiator when lookin from front of car follow that bak to the motor and thats where the thermostat is....there are threads round that show u how to do this....use the search its ur friend.....

if your car is running hot, its probably your radiator (its blocked).

Thermostats rarely are stuck closed, they are usually stuck open.

how do i bleed the air out?
and i cant find anywhere on here saying how to change the thermostat

[PaRaDoX]

the air will bleed its self out normally???

thermo stats are a pain in the ass to replace on a corroded inlet manifold... especially if they're still on the car

[90VN55]

normally????

and if it doesnt?
