Not sure about that. I don't remember the coolant system being pressurized until after the engine warmed up. Even if the thermostat was bad wouldn't it be just open or closed? Just wondering as I would love it if it was just the thermostat. And how do I get it started? - Got oil, got coolant, need beer!
