it is a shop located at barrie. that's all i should say even tho he didn't do the best job, its the past. I just want to get my ride to run again thats all. I guess the thermostat doesnt really have anything to do with this correct? i'm throwing out random thoughts..it might also be the temperature sensor?

i ordered a new thermostat, gasket. will do a coolant flush tmr. I will give an update. Thanks Tweak for the Rad! I think shipping will cost alot from the states atm tho 
appreciate it.
BTW, you guys know whats the water thermo switch do in the 13BT? I checked with the Mazda Dealer, they said its for A/T, but my Manual car has it. I might want to change that piece as well?

I believe off the top of my head that switch detects the water temperature and tells the ECU how much fuel to inject for a cold start or warm start. I don't believe it has anything to do with regulating temperature.
