and your spelling sucks...

how do you know its overheating? is the temp guage going past the middle? do you have an aftermarket temp guage? if your coolant seals are bad pressure from the combustion chamber will force coolant to overflow as well...... does the car burn coolant at all?? white smoke?

My temps went down by about 20+ degress by turning my fans on high and wiring them where they are always on when the keys are in the ignition.

I removed the thermostat and found it wasn't opening very far I removed it from the car. Due to it taking longer to get to running temp my vacume leak has caused for a very rough ride. When the car gets to temp it runs much smother. if you have any suggestions on finding my leak or getting rid of my stutter I would appreciate it. The car stutters around 4000 rpm.
