So I had replaced the thermostat the first time and a couple of months later it was overheating again- usually after it had been running off and on that day. short 10-20 minute trips. doing fine, then temp gauge shoots up and it doesnt come down till I turn it off. The heat might not work as well. Ive burped it by the manual a couple of times since the 2nd thermostat (from Subaru- amazing how much better it is). It is doing it again. It doesn't seem super hot- there is no steam and it smells ok. the radiator may be hot or it may be warm. I may keep the fans running and it'll cool down pretty quickly. burp it again and it does it again. no leaks of coolant or oil as far as I can tell. ANY IDEAS(besides head gasket)?

My timing belt broke a while back as I was just leaving for work. I rolled the car back into a wide spot in the driveway until I could get parts and the time to do the job. Well, that was about a month. After getting the job all done, I fired up the rig, turned on the heater and was covered in all manner of mouse bedding... And other things... Today, I went on a mouse hunt. He had made his home in the hardest part to get to, the driver's side vent. I had to remove everything and scrub it all with Awesome. I had to dismantle the fan, the whole bit. Hopefully when I get out there tomorrow I will remember how to put it all back together... I hate mice.
