A week ago my car overheated for the first time since i got it, so i changed the thermostat with my dad. He said we should keep the cap off the radiatior to see if the fluid is circulating. Well after the car started to get to normal temp the fluid started gushing out, something he said shouldnt happen. So i filled it up with fluid again and and put the cap on and it has been working good. Oh and the thermostat i put in is a autozone cheapeee. But anyway now after the car has been sitting for a while like 6 hrs or so. When the car starts warming up the temp gauge rises slowly then fairly fast shoots all the way up for about 30 seconds to a minute then the temp goes back down. And when the temp is all the way up i dont feel my heat like the fluid isnt circulating... So anyone have any suggestions, my buddy said it might be some sort of temp sensor. but i need some help !!
