[latinman07]

my brother told me about thet today bleed the cooling i was going to do that tomorrow

[LS/Vtec]

did you put coolant in it or just water?

[latinman07]

i was doing water for now just to try my engine out an then i was going to get coolant

[LS/Vtec]

thats prolly ur problem. drain it, put coolant, bleed the system n hopefully u didnt blow ur head gasket.

[latinman07]

OK im going to try that out tomorrow

[kbrown!]

lol if the waters boiling and melting plastic the headgasket is the least of your worries. your heads probably warped now

[latinman07]

is not melting the plastic is just coming out of the host mad hot

[kbrown!]

how long did it run before you realized it was overheating

[latinman07]

na i just went around the block to text the engine out went i got to my house again the needle was on hot an i turn my car off mad fast

[kbrown!]

oo then you should be good.
drain the radiator completely put coolant in it. turn the car on leave the radiator cap off! as the car starts to warm up you will notice bubbles comming from the top of the radiator. the heat is making the air rise and pushing it out of the where the cap is suppose to be. keep filling the radiator until it wont take anymore and stops bubbling. that means there is no more air in your radiator. you should be good after that make sure you check for oil/coolant mix on the oil cap. if its mixing you probably blew your headgasket. but if you really turned it off that fas then it should be fine

[latinman07]

thanks man im going to do that tomorrow to se
