Re: Throttle body bypass

is there a problem with over heating after doing the throttle body bypass?? my engine is at about 240, normally runs at like 210? or is this just a glitch because i bypassed it? or heating up because the coolant dripping down?

Re: Throttle body bypass

Thats's strange it sould not run that hot.
you might have an air pocket in the engine.
I would turn on the AC so the coolant fan is on and take it for a long drive.
That should get rid of any air pocket's.
If it still runs hot then you have to try to bleed it out throught those bleed screws I told you about in my other post.
And a couple of heat up and cool down cycles should thake of the coolant level in the over flow and the Rad.

You can syphon the excess out of the reservoir with a bit of tubing.
