    x2. Sounds like air in the system. Where do you keep getting these non-honda thermostats?

    we did bleed it tonight i made sure to use the bleeder valve and completely emptied the radiator to make sure to get all the air out.

    there was alot of stuff in the new coolant though thats the only reason i was thinking it was the radiator.

    thats what im thinking to be honest the little fins on the top of the radiator have white crust stuff all over them kinda closing them up. we cleaned it did a radiator flush but im thinking the radiator is just tooooo far gone. im ordering one in the morning. hopefully that will fix the problem.

    Check the headgasket if you had your system completely flushed and the coolant is still dirty you may have another problem.
