Ever since I changed my thermostat My stock eg radiator has been smoking from the seal on the top under the black part... Now I put in a gsr radiator and its doing it again.. So today I put another gsr radiator witch was brand new.. I let it sit about 10 min and got all the air out of the system.. took it for a test drive and came back and then AGAIN smoke... Could my thermostat make all these radiator go bad? both upper and lower hoses are hot. No milky type stuff in the oil, no sweet exhaust smell. Car stays at 180 so its not over heating.. ANYONE KNOW ANYTHING PLEASE LET ME KNOW

 

Also this is a Gsr head on b16 block.. Have had it that way for about 8 months! Car has never overheated!

 

....not using the old cap are you ?

 

No. Brand new cap.Its smoking from the Silver part of the radiator
