- Wed May 28, 2014 4:09 am #345934 My coolant is fine no smoke or anything drives like it should. It stopped when my car ran for a little bit but I gotta test it again tomorrow.

- Fri May 30, 2014 6:07 pm #346008 Could be an air lock, or a sticky thermostat, or the rad cap not opening at the correct pressure. There is another thing , try to drive the car with the heater on, not with the fan just with the temperature. Let us know

- Fri May 30, 2014 7:07 pm #346010 Maybe its your water pump ? i had the same problem in my civic the temp was jumping, i changed the water pump and its fine now

- Fri May 30, 2014 10:58 pm #346015 Rebuilt head. New exhaust valves. Water pump timing belt done. Distributor went out on me a while ago when I was racing I don't know if that'll make a difference.

- Tue Jun 10, 2014 11:07 pm #346358 could be some air bubbles still trapped.

Best and cheap - free is to bleed the system. there is an thread on how to do this step by step.

from there, if the T-stat isn't replace, you might want to look into this.
