50/50 coolant is actually best even for extra cold weather, it's because the coolant molecules need equal part water in order to actually become "anti-freeze" love your videos
Why are you changing the channel name so often? It's kinda hard keeping track of your channel. Why not create a poll on UA-cam and ask the community to name it for you? I'm sure we could come up with some clever stuff. :D P.S. I petition to name it Rotors McRotorface!
Another easy way to burp the system is to remove the end of the coolant hose that goes to the fast idle cam on the throttle body. I recommend using some 3/8 inch hose pliers since it tends to get stuck on there. This will allow air to release as you fill the system and squeeze either of the large radiator hoses. I've found that I hardly have to add any coolant later since this method helps you get more in in the first place. The only downside is that you may have idle issues the first time or two that you run the car afterward since you could end up with air stuck in the fast idle cam instead of coolant. The fast idle cam has a wax pellet in it that changes shape with heat and indirectly adjusts the idle, so without coolant reaching it, it'll stay stuck open. If this happens and your car continues to idle high even with the temperature gauge reading warm, rev the engine lightly for a bit or go for a short drive at low speed. The problem more or less has to fix itself.
I've ALWAYS used OEM, but over the years I've had people swear by using 160 degree thermostats. I figured it would be kinda counterproductive to cooling. Just though I would get another opinion but I just got a "no" lol

3rd the name
Yep rotors mcrotor face
The only indecisiveness is from the channel. We seem to all agree on Rotors McRotorface.
CarNutz agreed. Dont wtf he's doing.
How you check the water pump to make sure its good?
Did ya get the radiations? How many did you get? Thanks for the video, the bolt on the left was a pain to get off for i did not have a long boi

More on the FC build please!!
What's your thoughts on running a thermostat that opens at a lower temperature? I'm in south FL and summer can be hot. I've seen mixed thoughts..
No
Ok..
Why

not gonna lie that was a pretty dark/creepy intro lol
Update video on the Cosmo? Been dying to see whats going on with it. Kinda a tease with it sitting behind the truck like that haha.
Is a LS swapped mx5 na a good idea?
My ported 13b is overheating and coolant is bubbling out from the top of the engine..any idea's what can it be?
Javier Ochoa what do you mean top of the engine?
Yo does anyone know if there's gonna be a 7's day this year and where?
What is an average price for a 13B Rebuild? at a reputable company?
Loving the videos by the way !!
Jonathan Perez Vlogs $6k all in
Over in VA at my buddy shop it’s around 3-4K if you want to port it it will go up from there
Rip?
You forgot the easiest cheapest problem to fix: a busted radiator cap that does not hold pressure will act like that too.
Rob Dahm should see this
Elgonidas lmfao but Abel has probably fixed that by now!
