In other posts I've voiced my concern about the temp of my big block w/ A/C (Not functioning but the condenser is in place). To review, I made a few changes over the wimter. Had the heads done to correct an oil issue, replaced a Kool-it water pump with a correct one, replaced my "functional replacement fan" with the correct "tipped" blade, painted my 6 year old aluminum radiator and cleaned the engine bay, pretty sure that's not the culprit.
It cosnsitantly runs about 15* warmer and gets to 230* in stop and go traffic (with cockpit temps going up with it
) but doesn't boil over and cools down once moving for a bit. Befoe the changes it never got over 210*. I'm thinking that perhaps I have air in the system, what's the best way to fill and check coolant level. I'd like to eliminate that as a cause. Thanks!!
