Heating problem
Heating problem So once i get my radiator, hopefully i'll have NO LEAK and FULL PRESSURE.
Once i run it for a while and i'm driving and i stop and turn off the car, then it starts spraying out of the leak and it shoots it on the engine and it smokes.......but if a leave it and let it warm up it'll go up past 210, haven't seen it gone farther yet (haven't tested It) but once i start driving then it's cool and starts cooling down..........any suggestions? Other then the leak. Could it be my thermo.
Where IS the thermostat?

if your really asking where the thermostat is.........pull off your intake tube after the throttle body and un pressure the coolant system etc. and then start taking the coolant tube off of the wierd looking metal elbow..it will leak coolant still...then undo the two screws that hold the elbow in and then pull that off..the thermostat is right under that..hope that helps

Thanks for the visual aids. In case i have to do that i'll know where it is. Plus the thermostat isn't expensive anyways!
