[QUOTE="SCGallo2, post: 15573850, member: 160791"] Did you install your new 170* t-stat in the same orientation as your previous t-stat? If so, then you likely just have air in the system preventing your water pump from pulling/pushing coolant through your engine and radiator. Squeezing your lower radiator hose should burp the system and allow your pump to grab coolant. You can also try pressurizing your coolant expansion tank from above. Your water pump is belt driven, so if your engine is running it should be pumping coolant through the engine, then once your engine is up to operating temp, the t-stat should open allowing coolant to flow through the radiator also.
