  • Engine running COLD, need help ASAP...

    This morning it stayed at 100 degrees for the entire drive (about 1 hour combined street/highway) until I stopped for about 20 minutes and let it idle... for that entire drive I had absolutely no heat and it is 40 degrees outside...

    Someone is telling me it could be air trapped inside the system... Well I bled and topped it off for about 15 minutes but I didnt see any airbubble pop out...

    This only started as soon as I replaced my water pump. The old pump didn't do this, the pump housing was also left open for about 2 days due to snow and I couldn't work on it.

    What could be the cause of this?

    The Pump is new
    The Thermostat is a month old...

    Could there still be air in the system after 15 mins of bleeding?

    Sounds like the thermostat is stuck open to me. I know you said it was new but maybe it's faulty or it may have some debris stuck in it.
