NO THE OLD OIL! To see if the coolant rises.

X2 on a compression test, i've told you that once and i assume you've done it.

i thought you said to mix the old oil with new oil ?? So i mix with coolant and the old oil and see if the coolant rises ???

NO! If theres coolant in the oil. You'll see it rise.

1. You shake it to mix all the molecules.
2.Pour a little into a cylinder that is clear.
3. Wait
4. Due to density, if there is coolant in there it'll rise.
5. Report back.

Edit: Waterpump looks fine.
Got money to have the Rad rodded out?

he means to have ur radiator cleaned out. like removing shit from ur radiator.

positive your car is actually overheating and the gauge and/or sensor isnt screwed up somehow? seeing that u did mention it suddenly fluxuate out of no where and go back down

fan clutch ??? Big metal round thing connect to the water pump ???

Can i hose down the radiator with water and also can i put that water pipe in the hole and see if the water comes out the bottom ?? Is that safe to do ??
