OOOOOOOOOKAAAYYY

finally i tackled my oil cooler project, i took it out and realized that the seals were toast. I replaced it with new seals and a new oil cooler, pretty easy job. same day i did oil change and spark plugs and other stuff

I did the prestone super flush 3 times, then regular prestone flush 2 times and then just water a few times. Its 98% cleaned up now. between the flushes i would run the car for 10 min with the heat cranked, but the fans never blew warm air it was cold air. why is that?

For my final coolant refill i used the audi/vw coolant and mixed it half half. it was 2am and plus 2 outside i drove the car to my house (10min drive) and as i was in my area my engine temp shot up and i turned off the car and glided home.

I popped my trunk and steam was coming out of the cap. whats going on here? been working on the car for 7 hours tonight, now im exhausted and going to bed.
