I'll get that thermostat next. All I purchased was the coolant sensor. And as soon as I started the car without the rad cap on the coolant came rushing out like a live volcano so I turned my car off and had to clean up the coolant explosion.

My car did die again last night on me on the highway. The rpm dropped to zero and it eventually turned off. From what I have read the most common solution is getting a new ecu. I'm going to look into that. But my bro-in-law said it could also be the intake manifold.

Also one more thing. When my car revs from 1500 and up I heard a weird sloshing sound. I don't really know how else to put it...sounds like water moving around. So maybe I did the burping wrong.
