The best thing to do is remove the thermostat, checking to make sure it was installed correctly, then test run the engine for overheating without the thermostat. It is very easy to put a thermostat in upside down, which will prevent water flow; hence, no water will cause overheating and no heat.

I bought my 04 cavalier without cruise. My friends and I have been taking it on road trips because they all have trucks. Is it possible to install cruise control? If it is, does anyone know if it's difficult?

1996 Cavalier Cooling Qustion... by smitty24

I changed my water pump. Now the temp is running normal but the overflow canister, which is where you add the coolant, is not pressuring up and is cold when I feel the coolant, even after running it a while with the cap on. Also, on the dashboard the low level light is on, although the level is showing fine. Any suggestions? Thanks...

96 Cavalier Cooling Info... by smitty24

96 Cavalier: There is no, or very little, flow through my radiator. Top hose hot, bottom hose warm. Is this a thermostat or water pump problem? Or possibly something else. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks...

Did you get this fixed? We are having the EXACT same problem!!!! Timing chain sliped, no compression, swaped engine, now no fuel, that was not a problem before swap.
We would appreciate if you would contact us to let us know how you resolved the issue.
Thank you,
Jeff
