My cooling fan comes on when temp reaches 100º
I didn't mention it but I just replaced the head gasket last week
I just finished flushing out the rad too it didn't feel restricted
No I did it in my driveway It's not puffing white smoke or anything
I did spend along time cleaning the head and block when I had it apart I hope its still good I really don't want to do it again
Yeah you're right man I have fucking coolant in my oil again
All good man it really wasn't all that hard
But back to the overheating part.. what would have made the head gasket blown?
I got it pretty hot on my way to work so It was definitely the operator but I think I may have had a faulty thermostat to cause it to over heat I'm just going to buy a different car this one's going to the shredder lol
