ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

    lower radiator hose and thermostat ?

    my upper radiator hose get really hot when my engine is warmed up real good.

    but my lower radiator hose does not ever get hot, it barely gets warm even when my engine is pretty hot.

    my question: is there something wrong with my thermostat
    because my coolant tends to boil and bubble up a little bit after driving for 30 minutes or so.

    my temp gauge is always above the 1/2 way mark and usually around the 3/4 mark, but never getting into the red-zone

          They have a pressure tester for radiator caps to see if they are within spec.

              Only reason to replace it is if it is cracked or something. You do have to replace the rubber gasket that goes between it and the block, but that should come with the thermostat.
