Its. 2002 Mitsubishi gallant 2.4ltr it had issues with over heating so I replaced the sensor and stat about a year ago now.
Well today the top hose blew and once it was fixed still running high and No heater blower.
Is this the damn thermostat again ?

Could be a head gasket issue or you could have a restriction in your coolant system by the sounds of it.

What is the best way to get the air out of the system for this car ? I know a honda usually has a air bleed valve dont think these Mitsubishi do :(
