i do have a mechanic, he told me that it was b/c the radiator was clogged and he said to take it out for a little bit to stop the temperature rising high, and it worked, but i was just curious of why takin the thermo out would solve everything, i wanted to c what u guys thought

Ok, man. I might be a "newb" to this site, but i also happen to be a technician... so if you dont want my advice i wont offer it up any more. But dont talk smack like that, you can't even tell if you have a hydrolic clutch..... Peace.
