I installed the new thermo, I picked up the more expensive one from advanced, it works fine in my friends ser. So it will work fine in my det until I get my nismo. I installed up, hole up. Put the fluid in. It got warm, up to temp. I was waiting for the radiator fluid to get lower like it shold, but it never did. So i drove it up the street, I got on it once and it got hot as shit.

So I went home, no pressur ein the lines, so I opened the cap. Its like the thermo isnt opening? Im not shore. I dontknow trhermos, and I know how to bleed a system. So would my thermo be stuck closed?
