I have a 97 ls, and today I was pulling up my driveway and I saw the temp. gauge go almost all the way to hot, but I stopped and popped my hood and saw that the top radiator hose was all messed up and it badly let all the coolant out, so I replaced it and the motor is still over heating and I can hear the coolant in the radiator bubble. I've been told that the thermostat may be clogged, any ideas?

THANX ALOT!

 

I am assuming you refilled the radiator with coolant and bled the air out.

Run the engine until til the temp gauge shows it's warmed up. grab the upper radiator hose and it should be warm and see if there is coolant flowing by pinching the hose slightly. You should feel and hear the fluid flowing. then you will know if the thermostat isnt stuck closed.
