I believe it's a 4 core and there are 5 blades on the fan. The wierd thing is that this morning I took the radiator cap off and let the car run for 5 to 10 minutes while getting ready for work. The water didn't seem to be flowing through the radiator. Before we had the radiator and engine flushed due to rust bits being in it, it had great flow. Can't figure it out, but it seems to be worse since we had it flushed. Maybe the water pump is bad? We didn't think so before because the water was flowing. Would the 160 thermostat do this? A family mechanic said to put it in so the engine wouldn't get so hot.
On another note (or could be related); this is from my husband. When the engine is hot and I restart it, it blow a lot of white smoke. Any ideas on this. It also blow smoke when I step on it hard or kick in the 4bbl. I assumed this was from the carburetor.
Any help is appreciated.
