temp is 250?? is that too high
i judt did a radiator flush i used the dex-cool 50/50 for my 97 camaro lt1. i was dring it around and the temp was at 250 is that too high or should it be lower?? need help
250 is about as high as you can get w/out boiling over.
Let the engine cool down for a while, then add coolant, make sure the radiator and reservoir are both full.
Then with the engine running and warming up, open the bleeder screw until coolant comes out- sometimes it will bubble out for a while, just let it come out until there's no air. LT1's can sometimes be tricky to get the air out of. 225-230 is usually about the hottest it should get if it's just sitting and cycling the fans.
BTW don't add coolant to an overheating engine- bad things can happen...

If you don't know what bleeders are, you surely have air pockets in your system.
