Engine Cooling problem
1999 Dodge Dakota V8 Four Wheel Drive Manual

I have had trouble with my 99 dakota overheating. I have replaced several parts to fix the problem, I have also flushed the system many time and still have the problem. Now I found I have no pressure in the cooling system. What do I need to do to fix this problem?

Pressurize the cooling system-did you replace the thermostat. No pressure in the system entails to major leak somewhere-
