hey guys, i am still havin a few problems with my buick. the car had a motor and turbo put in it in 1998. it had about 1000 miles put on it and it sat til 2003. i have been driving it for about 3 months. i am havin a rough time figuring out some problems.
i put a 160 themostat in it for the summer time, and when it got colder the car would bog down then pick back up, so someone mentioned put a warmer thermostat in it, i put a 195. now the tempurature on the gauge inside wont drop past 220. and if you get on the gas, the tempurature starts to shoot up really high, i put a new water pump on it, i put an electric fan on it, i havent replaced the clutch fan yet. but now the car is lacking low rpm power. i am really gettin frustrated, and i really need help so i would appreciate it if someone would help me out
