| Ok I replaced the Tstat, and flushed the radiator and now its still running hot, before the water even heats up. I was getting on the freeway accelerating 35, 45, 50, and I saw the Temp needle was rising ever so rapidly , so I turned the car off and coasted off of the freeway, slowing down and coming to a turn, I started the car again and the temp was halfway between hot and normal, then I am driving about 25MPH for about a block and the needle started going back to normal, then I stop at a stop sign and take off again and the needle starts going hot again so I pull over and park and turn the car off. Then about 15 mins later I turn the car on and the needle is back and the halfway point between normal and hot, so I turn on the heater full blast and the temp goes back to normal very quickly, so I take off and try to head back to my apt and as soon as I try to get back on the gas to acc. the needle starts going towards hot agains, so I just get off and coast to my appts. Then I get to my appt and park and check the oil level and ATF, and I see a little smoke coming from the back of the engine, like from where the windshield wipers are, so I turn the car on and let it idle and it starts getting hot the needle starts slowly easing towards hot, and I decide to hit the gas a little and the needle literally speeds up towards hot the more I pressed the gas so thats where I just stopped and left it alone! Any ideas? Also ever since I changed the oil the last time, I reset oil gauge on the dash, but every time since then when I turn on the car after and 20seconds of starting and idling a yellow oil symbol comes on and stays on for about 10 seconds and then goes off, and idea what that is?
