Cooling system
Just did a cooling systen flush on my '83 300D(shout & citric acid), replaced thermostat and refilled with Zerex G-05 coolant. The problem I'm having is that it it running hotter now than it did before. Its now running at 90-95 were as before it ran at 85 and at the most 90. My upper radiatior hose is hot but it wont get hard so I think I'm not building up enough pressure. Is is possible I still have air in the cooling system? My heat works great. I've read where the cars are difficult to get any air that is trapped out. My radiator cap seems fine. I dont hear any air coming out of the overflow wich could happen if it was leaking by the cap.. Any ideas?
