I have a 95 LS and I am having problems with the cooling. The temp gauge when I am driving goes all the way to cold especially on the highway. I know my mix is wrong. I think there is to much coolant. I have dropped the radiator 2 times and it does not seem to be getting better. What is the deal? I don't think there is to much water but I have no idea anymore. Please any helpful advice would be great.

 

Check your thermostat it cold be stuck open.

Or it could be the coolant temp. sender thats bad giving you a false reading.

 

Stupid ? where's the thermostat located? I think its located behind the lower radiator hose on the back of the engine? Yes?

AH... yes search is good I found my answer. Thanks to all anyway. Any idea on price for a new thermostat?

thermo housing is where teh lower radiator hose meets block. there should be like alil blugde there , looks like a golfball size shaped area where the hose connects to. 2 bolts, and bam, there she is. thermo is stuck open. try that. also, your cts should be right there too.. usually a mechanical failure rather then electrical. good luck, byut before you do it, fluch your system, some goober prolly messed up your thermo
