I am a newbie! just got a 62 corvette..it over heats..the thermostat is a 180, new, still gets to 210-220 degrees..believe the engine was redone and bored out .03 in the 80s..may not have original radiator..I did pour in radiator stop leak in, seems to overheat after that.. Not sure if the radiator is plugged or not..could it be fuel? I use premium, no ethanol.. any ideas?
Stop leak is also known as stop flow. That stuff is crap. Take the radiator to a radiator shop and have it cleaned out. Take a minute to read this as well.. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=44274
