    My car is playing with my emotions...

    I just took out the radiator, off the fan clutch and put on a new pulley and then reassembled! I drove her all day and then coming home she started overheating AND the heat went out. then I filled the coolant tank and... it was fine all day until coming home, the heat went out and she started overheating.

    Is my heatercore clogged? or what?!

          you can drill a small hole in your thermostat to make bleeding easier.

                the bleeder screw on the thermostat housing is completely stripped, is there any other way to get the air out?
