    So the other day the low coolant light came on and shut off 15 sec later. Got home coolant was a little low put more in it. Then driving again today the light would come on and off randomly and i noticed my Temp would go up to 185 then drop back down to 180 where it usually is. It did this a couple times too. Would this indicate air in the system? I personly replaced the lim gasket and thermostat probably 8 months ago. There is also no coolant around elbows or on the ground either.

    the lights are known to be faulty, check the level. check the oil dipstick, make sure there is no chocolate milk in it and unplug the coolant temp sensor its located on the radiator next to the trans lines. just unplug it. mine has been unplugged for years no issues
