My 87 open cooling system isnt building pressure to suck or blow (no comments please) the coolant back into the overflow bottle. Its not overheating, and I can tell from the temp gauge when the thermostat opens up initially after driving it around. Heater blows...not scalding hot, but it warms up the cabin. I felt both hoses when I got home and the upper was hot (not to hot to rest my hand on though), and the lower was luke warm. I thought it might be my t-stat stuck in the open position, but then I wouldnt be able to tell when it opens initially (unless its just staying in the open position afterwards..do they do this?). Then I thought maybe the cap is faulty. Both are pretty new (less than a year old), and there are no leaks in the system. Can someone please offer some insite?
Thanks
