5.3 is overheating, no water in top radiator hose, help?
Well I've been driving my 5.3 swapped s10 around the past couple days and haven't been having any problems til tonight. 5.3 has the stock truck waterpump with the stock theromostat that I have not replaced. I'm using the 4.3 s10 radiator which is used.
The radiator is holding pressure I know that for sure...
Now ever since I've started the truck I've never had water in the top radiator hose but never had a problem with overheating until tonight...
Just wondering what could be causing the top radiator hose to get any water...
