thermo has been replace the head was resurfaced radiator was flushed hoses replace. I checked for problems with the cooling system on the second time around found nothing. I had no problems after the second time with the cooling system other than the Main relay which it wasnt too big a problem at the time. I knew it would have to get replaced eventually. But that day.....everything kind of came undone but truth is i am tired of fukin with the engine i replace the cylinder head with a new one got new injectors for it and bought some aftermarket cams i even order the cam gears which im not putting on now. Thats why im thinking last person who had it might have fuked the block up. The reason i bought a new head was that the one i took off broke like 4 screws triyin to take off the cams and i was even forcing it they just snaped off. The thermo wasn't even on it had none. i mean i can do it all over again no prob i got the money but whats to keep it from doing it all over again.....

so you wasted $ on a head when you coulda gone to a parts store and spent $50 on an easy out, and a few heli-coils?

replace your main reley and make sure your fans even come on

nah i still got the other head i was gonna do that anyways and try to extrac them kinda like practice. But the guy at the machine shop told me it was not worth it, to just buy another one, so i got one from a yard cheap took it back. Guy checked it out and told me the surfacing wasn't needed, checked it out with a straight edge. Compared one to each other and the one i took off was in need of a head job more than the one from the yard which is rare since it was from the junkard.

Im still trying to figure that out about the overheating im assuming the radiator is cloged i plan on buying another radiator anyways. I wanted to keep the car stock since the whole ride is OEM down to its rims,( if you believe that ) it still has the rims it came with from the factory.
