Bucky92 Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 well..putting that sealer stuff in it was the wrong thing to do..clogs the whole system. Wouldnt be too suprised if you blew a head gasket on it. sounds alot like it ..but maybe not. first thing you should do is flush the system..then make sure you get all the air from the system ( burping it). did you put an OEM T stat in? Subes are partial to OEM ones and have troubles with aftermarket. The Radiators on yours are prone to clogging also... feel the radiator for hot and cold spots...also make sure you dont have a hose collapsing when its running... there is a start for you..

john in KY Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Replace the radiator with new and "burp" the coolant system and you should be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobaru Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 WHAT I READ IS it over heated and blew a head gasket when the heater hose blew no flushing or burping is going to help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
