radiator Options

[babysupragt]

Wuz up to all 6gc owners here is da deal. My car heats up every 2 weeks i dont know why. I fill up my radiator with antifreze and water and i still have the same problem. I stop putting antifreze cause theres no point so now i just put water. Like 9 months ago i changed my radiator and got a new one which is the one im using now. I would like to get some info from you guys of what can be the problem thanks.

Agreed, to check the thermostat is quite simple bro. Here is what to do Start the car and let it warm up to normal temp., then put your hand on the inlet hose and outlet hose, if one is cold the thermostat is jammed and needs to be replaced.
