Alright this is what I did, at lunch I went out and looked in the surge tank and its pretty much empty! I then started the car, put the heater on defrost and let it run for awhile, no heat came out and the windows didn't fog up. Then I checked the fans and both of them are working.
I drove the car to the auto parts store to buy some antifreeze, on the way I put the heat on again and it was working, I had all the windows rolled up and still no fog on the windshield. Then the heat stopped putting out hot air, I did not smell any antifreeze. I turned off the heat and continued to the store. At one red light it started to get hot but nothing over 3/4 of the way up in the white box area on the gage.
Now when I came back and was in the parking lot and parked I noticed the heat gage rising again, I hit the gas a little and it quickly jumped back down.
Now I'm going to put in the antifreeze after the car cools down for a few hours. Again this will sound dumb but just to make sure I add it with the car running, right?
How do you know when you put enough in?
Thanks for everyones help on this!
