heating...once more!

[OhSnapS14]

Okay so i replaced the HG on my RB20det replaced the intake gasket. Did what i thought was bleeding the water system but i still seem to get to 210 after about 20mins of driving. Please someone help me fix my RB by telling me what i may have not done to fix my issue.
:lfault:

Need stronger fans? Fans blowing the correct direction?

[OhSnapS14]

They seem to be blowing on high just fine and they are sucking fans not pushing. thats the way the guy before me had them set up. Can a heater core issue be a problem?

[OhSnapS14]

really can no one else help?!

[Sileighty_85]

no a heater core would not be the issue. If your heater is not working then you still have Air in the system

[OhSnapS14]

whats the best way to bleed the coolant system, raise up the front end? also when i look in the radiator the water isnt moving from side to side. =/

[Sileighty_85]

open bleeder screw fill up coolant, raise front end, turn on engine, turn on heater wait and watch temps

Make sure you have a new thermostat installed with the button at 12 o clock.

ive take out the thermostat completely cause of the issues ive been having with it and also i bypassed the heater core today to see if that was it. was told to by a friend. ill put that back together but the custom intake plenum i havent a clue where the bleeder screw is. and its not on the radiator.

Did you buy a new rad cap? And have the head surfaced when you did the HG?

[OhSnapS14]

No the rad cap is the same and it was wiz wheeled not resurfaced. Did a dye test and it was fine. also the compression came back good and I'm losing no coolant so let's rule out hg. i found something saying that the RBs get air locked easily so im gunna try that tomorrow.

[Butcher240sx]

Start with a new cap. It's cheap. If that fixes it put your thermostat back in. Bleed well. How are you measuring temp? Aftermarket gauge? I've been working on a Saturn this week that sits at 210 pretty quick. The Efan doesn't even come on until about 225*

[Sileighty_85]

^^ Thats pretty damn hot guy.

My RB runs around 180-188*

[Butcher240sx]

Yeah , I thought so too. When the fan finally comes on the temp drops to 200 and the fan turns back off.

[Sileighty_85]

Thought you were referring to an RB Engine...

Every engine is different

[OhSnapS14]

yah, i bleed it and it seems to be running better about 210 on avg today just puttering around. what kinda temps do you get when you drift?
