Hey, i replaced my clutch fan yesterday for my R33 N/A it seized. To get it out i had to remove the top hose connecting to the radiator, so i did that a bit coolant came out, i reconnected the hose and topped it up. The car is now overheating, when idle it keeps going up i stop at 90 degrees and turn the car off, while driving it goes back down to 80 like normal, and when the radiator cap is off it doesnt overheat either.

For a few minutes i bled the radiator of air bubbles saw a few came out then stopped. Today i turned on the car and it kept rising again. Anyone know what the problem could be?

Thanks

probably to do with the new clutch fan you put in. go for a drive on a bit of highway/motorway. if the temp is ok at highway speed then you know it's the fan.

but either way, 90 degrees isn't that high. to put that in perspective, one of the thermos in the missus SSS doesn't come on until 100 degrees (set that way from factory). pretty sure the thermos don't kick in on my commodore until about 95 as well.
