clogged radiator clarification
k well i put the newn fan clutch in and nothing still overheats but i decided to test the radiator before the fan clutch.
well the question i really have is when the radiator is starting to warm up is the whole radiator supposed to warm up at the same time or does it take time to travel and warm it all up.
i know i might have a clogged radiator because once side of the my radiator veins were hot and the other side was still cold but as the car warmed up i felt the other side starting to get hot but im guessing it's from the coolant not being able to get through and just sitting on top and heating the metal up.
but can someone correct me on this?
