ok :( this is killing me , i changed my radiator O_o and the person who did that is supposed to be expert , however , the car acts weird now , let me describe :

1- when the car isnt moving , the car temperature is within the normal range ( approx. 40 % of scale)

2- when the car moves , after a few minutes more like 10 mins of driving , the scale rises into 80% then to full !

please notice that i removed thermostat and changed engine oil , and this stills happending ! ,

@falochi watch my other video "how to fix an overheating car" and try all those tests, many things can do that, often the radiator isn't the only problem.

Is it any different on a 91 Mitsubishi Eclipse 2.0 DOHC ?

[scottykilmer]

@hkevingh1 na, pretty easy job on that too.

Hey scotty, I'm looking to replace my radiator very soon/ This seems like quite an easy process, however, when following this guide, won't air bubbles make it into your cooling system? If so, how would you go about getting them out? And would you recommend a complete block flush while replacing the radiator as well?

Enjoying the videos - Thanks,

Scott

@UltiGamer101 yes, I would block flush it too. The air will come out eventually if you carefully warm the engine up with the cap off and add coolant until full.

@falochi

is there any possibility that , he plugged the hoses in a wrong way so that cooling circle aint completing ?
