I have the above car and it was in the garage most of the winter and now i am fixing the little thing to get it running again. i replaced the timing belt and the cam seals. I also replaced the water pump and all belts and hoses, including the thermostat. Before i placed the radiator back i flushed it with only water (with the water hose). The fan clutch was replaced 2.5 years ago. I turn the car on and the car reads hot, all the hoses are hot to the touch. I did something stupid and removed the thermostat, to see if it was it, but i still gets hot. I am out of options here, i would love some help and advise if you could. Thanks so much!!!
