Hi guys

I changed my coolant since the old water was rusty as sh!t. i put in the coolant stuff blead the system and now the temp when driving sits at over 90 on my power fc. The needle doesn't go up above half way on the dash but still it makes me worried.

What's the proper way to blead the gtr coolant lines and is there something else i need to do??

and also my heater is no where near as hot as it usually is when i have it on 32 degrees

i have taken out the water lines that run to my heater core and tried to run water through it. but it's not flowing through.

i have stuck the hose in it and it seems like it's completlly blocked. so am i doing it wrong or is there something that i need to do to make it run through???

any help would be great

Cheers anthony

By the sound of it you have moved a big chunk of rust, try reverse flushing your heater, with any luck it will push it back out the way it came.

Also if the water is that rusty you need to flush the radiator with a hose for ages, mine would flow clean water and then you put the hose in the other end and more rusty water would come out, once it gets bad its pretty hard to fix 100%.

As for bleeding, not sure about a gtr but on the gtst there is a little 10mm bolt that sits just above the manifold, you undo that and keep filling for a while til there are no more air bubbles coming out, i use a cut down coke bottle to get a bit more pressure in to it.

Ok Guy's just an update

the heater is getting hot only after you hold the heat button for like 5 sec so it's on full hot otherwise it stay's fairlly cool

i've now bleed the system for about 30 mins and it's still getting above 90 degrees i really need some help here

i can here the aircon fan turn on above 90 so i'm guessing the power fc controller is not regestering the wrong temp since even at 95 degrees the temp needle on the dash is still only on half way.

some one please please help.

Cheers
