Ride Or Die.
Hey Guys, I have A VR commodore 3.8L and I'm having overheating issues, when my car idles and I have my radiator cap off I'm getting alot of air bubbles in the water, I've been told it was due to a blown head gasket but I've checked both head gaskets and both are fine, i even replaced them with high performance ones, I also snapped the metal end off the heater valve tap inside the heater hose which i have just recently replaced with a brand new one which i know would have no effect or cause to the car overheating.
I have twin thermo's one mounted to the radiator on the motor side and one mounted on the opposite side near my front bumper blowing air into the radiator itself and the car still overheats, my water pump is brand new so I doubt that may be the issue unless it's a dodgy ass one and dont work.
I know my thermastat is correct due to the radiator getting extremely hot and sometimes the overflow tank gets blasted by alot of hot water and steam and the O/F tanks lid blows off.
I've tried looking at alot of possible issues but haven't seemed to find a solution and hoping some of you guys may be able to help with the issue
