SR running a bit hot, any advice

[tougefactory]

We can't stress enough how well this combo works/fixes overheating issues and keep your temps low..

Koyo dual pass N-FLO radiator + OEM Clutch fan and shroud and if you want to go a little over board run Motul (MOCOOL RADIATOR ADDITIVE and DISTILLED WATER).

Every car that passes through our shop with over heating issues and higher temps, we do this set up and it works wonders..

Also, might be one of the easier steps, but tend to be overlooked is bleeding the system properly.. Letting gravity help you is the best method thus far for us. Jack up front end as high possible, hook up the no-spill funnel (fill it up, keep it filled), turn on the car and just let it run for at least 20-30min.

If you need any help or questions on parts shoot me a message! I'll be glad to assist you.

Roger that, i haven't heard of the MOCOOL but i ran water wetter with distilled water, took majority of the coolant i had out and flushed it last night. Hasn't gotten hot again yet. Im going to warm the car up again in a few and drive it around to make sure temps don't creep up again but it seems to be good now. Much appreciate the replies and help!

I did fear it was a HG issue considering it got to 240F one time when the new thermostat i had would not open up, had someone watching the gauge while i was under the hood bleeding the coolant and they didn't pay attention sadly. I did check the oil and coolant after and both were still clean, also it was shut off immediately after I realized the Tstat wasn't opening. I hope that didn't do any damage, also the HG is a metal one which should help but it hasn't gotten that hot again since.
