When did this happen? And what kind of power loss did you experience? Was it steering loss only, or the whole car shut off?

My whole.car shut off while i was driving on I-1u. I changed thermastat WAS running real rough turned off now wont start again

You just have to let your engine block cool down. It may take a while. But the car won't start up because it knows it's super hot and doesn't want to overheat.
