Black 5spd · 05-31-2005, 03:29 AM

i use to have a 1987 325e as some of you know
now i got a 1986.5 Supra and the heat guage does not work.
the radiator is shot (lower half the cooling fins have rotted out)
i can only get the new radiator on thursday, so i flushed out the old one and put it back in, took out the thermostat.
i ran it and the top hose is hot as hell and the bottom hose is almost as hot. what should i do?
ADN HOW do i fix the heat guage or put in an aftermarket one???
ps i dont know where the coolant temp sensor is.
please help this car is my ride to school, so i got to fix her fast and get that heat guage workin now so i can monitor the engine, i got 2 eyes one for oil psi and one for heat.
