    i had my coolant tank crack on me once causing it to over heat. i would swap the t-stat to be safe and drill some holes in it. after a new evans water pump, t- stat w/ holes, LFP radiator, my car ran real cool here.

    i had to "burp" mine about 3-4 times after swapping the coolant tank to get all the air out of the system....

    I found that it burps easy if you have the front of the car jacked up or on ramps.
