2000 2.2 4dr Cavalier - Ran like top; no issues. Daughter rear ended cop car; minor leaks in radiator so put in Bar's Leak and tried to run it; overheated and brought it to house; I replaced radiator and condenser; filled it up and no leaks but runs super hot like it will overheat. Put in new thermostat, same problem. Removed tiny "pressure relief screw" in hard line, top right front of motor and no coolant coming out.
Try with thermostat out? Air lock? Needs good flush? Thoughts? Thanks in advance for any help!!
