Truck Running Way To Hot
ok i got the dodge running again but she is running hot, the thermostat dont pop till the last mark on the guage which i dont like. then i only drops a hair below 190 which i dont like either. i noticed it isnt blowing hot air threw the heater eather. i raplaced the radiator cap and all i have now is hot air. should i replace the thermostat as well?

do a total flush .....you will be suprised what the glycol looks like, yes then do a new thermostate too
#3

not true, water is a better coolant alone generally, correct me if i'm wrong but in order to use the antifreeze as a coolant you need water as a catalyst to make the antifreeze do its job
