A locked up, closed thermostat will indeed cause the overheating, its not allowing water flow to the powerhead once the engine is warmed up..
I'd flush it as best as possible while the thermostat is out being changed.
Don't know about bleeding the oil system but running pre-mix at the same time would protect the engine.
What makes you think you have air in the system? Did it run dry or you change out a hose?Last edited by TownsendsFJR1300; 03-24-2014, 07:09 AM.Scott

nice thing about the inline 2 and 3 cyl motors? the oiling system is self bleeding.
however we have NO clue what your talking about that is airlocking.Comment
