so it started to overheat after the radiator install huh , does the bottom /top hose gets hot at all?

make sure u took out the plastic plug from the radiator before you install the hoses :-X

my oil level is good. i checked it just about an hour ago. also my turbo isnt burning any oil, it doesnt smoke and the charge pipes have a slight oil residue but thats normal.


anyways, i just ran it for probly 10 minutse with the cap off and i bled it numerous times w/o any air comeing out. im not getting any bubbles out of it either.




thanks for everyones help

Your front mount might be blocking your radiator. My car overheats in the summer because of this.

yeah, thats possible. but this is the thing.... my cars a 1g crx and i have no headerpanel (the part that goes between the hood and bumper) on it. so baiscally at least 1/2 of the radiator is completaly exposed.
