Hey guys, I've just recently done a coolant flush, when I took off the thermostat housing, I didn't look at which way the thermostat goes in, so now I'm just running no thermostat because it kept heating up on me when I put it back in. It's a ae82 bigport, with still the fwd cooling setup.
I'm trying to find the hot side of the pipe.
Shouldn't the hot water come out the back of the head "drivers side" then heat the thermostat and then have the hot coolant go into the bottom of the radiator, then cooled, then Pumped back in from the top ?
Just puzzled me cos it seemed like the thermostat was on the wrong side, and it didn't open up, so it seemed like it had massive air in the system and kept filling the overflow tank instead of going into the engine. Unless is feeds from bottom to top :/
Your help with be much appreciated guys !
