Ok i fixed it it goes at the bottom of the radiator in that bleed screw thingy, but something dont seem right....I let the car idle for 15 min....at first the top get really ------ hott.like steam hott.....and the bottom of the radiator is cold.....then after 10min the bottom gets hott....and the temp gauge goes to 195 degrees......is that good or bad?
It might be my thermostat opening, but i dont know at that tempatue....and to top all of it off my fan doesnt work....but ill rig a swith to that
