Could be an air bubble in the system. Is the water pump working? That could do it. Or as you said, the thermostat not opening, you could try one that opens sooner

it def a truck ill never forget, its from better days. i couldnt even tell you what the cover truck was last month. thanks for preserving a part of history! id like to see 90slolo one more time and pat nichols body dropped yota.

take the temp. sending unit out of the head and see if it has coolent at it,check the oil make sure it is clean (no water). let it cool down good take the rad. cap off and let it set over night the air will come to the rad. good luck hope you make reso.

did you get her too stop heating up ??

Hey Shannon thanks for the help. It did have a big air pocket. I flushed the system again and put in fresh coolant after the last run/flush the new coolant looked kind of dirty. Once I started it it ran for about 30 seconds and showed to be 180 degrees. Good part is coolant was flowing and all air bubbles are out. I replaced the temp sensor and let it sit for a day, same thing. Start it and within 30 seconds it showed 180+.My mechanic buddy going to come over and look at it see what I am missing.Will keep you updated on the progress as I want it 100% in case I want to cruise it at a show As far as Reso I plan on coming might need a copilot for the trip and have to save up money so I can enjoy the weekend. The entry fee for a tow pig and 2 vehicles on the gooseneck add up. Plus I like my Bud Light Thanks again everyone for your help hope to have a video of it running and cruising in the next few weeks.

Theres your problem..You drink that shitty Beer! Silver Bullet all the way

And you drink shitty beer as well Jon. Try something with a color that resembles maple syrup not urine.

I hope to see the truck at Reso this year!

Drain the system again and refill it slowly and that should do it...

OK as promised I wanted to keep this thread updated with shows I will be attending (thanks for the reminder Dusty). With the offerings of a few great guys I will be able to make Reso this year. I would like to thank Bob the man himself, Jamie at and Josh at Rail It Customs.Cannot wait to meet everyone and hang out. Hope to see everyone in December in Blythe.

I cant wait!
