New radiator, still over heating. - 2003-04 Mach 1 Registry Owners Club

My mishimoto leaked and caused me to not go to AC this weekend. I got it replaced (OEM) today and everything started off fine. I got up the road and decided to take the long way to see if it really was solved. Long story short, it was not. The car never got into the red either time of overheating. What the **** is going on here, i just want my car back. Maybe its time i swap in a terminator motor.

Did you "bleed" the system?

As they've all suggested, if you don't burp the system of that air, you're gonna overheat
