To re-hash, my headgasket blew.
Replaced headgasket and installed a re-built 2.1l head, intake, and all hoses.
Within an hour of finishing the job, my radiator blew a hole.
Ok. This morning I installed a new radiator.
Car warmed up normally, bled the air, everything fine.
Came in the house to wash up before taking it around the block.
5 min later back at the car the coolant is boiling in the overflow bottle.
Opened the air bleeder and bled more air until a stream of coolant came out.
Added more water, and within 5 minutes the whole scenario started all over again.
Temp gauge is staying in the normal area at about 3 o'clock.
The cooling fan is not coming on
At this point I have NO IDEA what could be going on and could really use some help.
