If you can't solve your problem make sure you don't have a bad manifold illustrated in this Kazuma Tech Bulletin. I always put my Mammoth on a steep incline or jack up the front with a floor jack. I fill the engine with coolant while it is idling. Then I cap the radiator. I then fill the upper reservoir to the correct level and then cap it. I let it then idle to build up pressure and then bleed the water valve. If you put a thermostat in make sure the temperature coil faces down into the manifold. I installed a mechanical temperature guage to check the water temperature coming out of the thermostat. I put the temperature probe in a pipe in the upper radiator hose at the radiator. I also installed the resistor in the Kazuma temp unit I bought from Aaron. I have had no temp issues for more than a year now. The fan should pull air through the radiator.
