Appreciate your support guys! Hopefully this helps you figure out your over heating issue! here is the link to my amazon store so you can buy that thermostat! amzn.to/3NF1aAy - Авто/Мото
When you fill a hemi with coolant; it is important to burp the system by elevating the front end, with radiator cap off, let the car idle till the thermostat opens. At that time you may see bubbles coming up the radiator cap hole from inside the cooling jacket. After all the air bubbles are out, put the cap on and you should be done.
Love the vids keep up the good work
Thanks, will do! 💪🏼
Hey bro nice build on that charger quick question I was wondering how do you get the menu with the temperature in the battery status on your - to automatically stay on when you crank the car up it's usually a button sequence I have to use to get it to pop up on my dash but once I cut the car off I have to put the button sequence in again to get it to pop up again it looks like you just crank your car up and it's automatically there
Did you use your stock torque converter with the new cam or did you install a stall converter??
how long has that thermostat last you and where did you get it from bro?
What type of coolant do you use bro? Is yours green or orange?
Where did you get that shift stick cover please ?
Grab your water pump try to move it up and down. See if the bearing has play in it that’s probably an old water pump.
Do I bleed the coolant right after replacing the thermostat even though it’s cold?
What kind of radio did you install in your charger? @srt dad
What size socket to remove the bleeder bolt
What intake do you have ?
Where can I get that exact hood??
Dont you have to tune the fans to turn on at lower temps to keep it cool as well ? And where can i find those red mopar seatbelt covers at !? 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Yea absolutely should do that and I did mention it towards the end. And dude! I bought them like 6 years ago for my 2017 RT got them off eBay but can’t find them anymore lol 😭
Damn thanks brother
@@MotivatedBySuccess if I can find them again I’ll definitely let you all know!
Hey brother what kind of radiator you have??
There’s a recall on the plastic fans you get them for free
I’ll definitely hit up Dodge and see if I can get them replaced didn’t know about a recall in the fans thx for the info my man I’m always down to get schooled haha 😅
Only if you still have the original fans, many have them swapped out by now.
How can I find this info for the replacement fan?
And is it for Amy specific year or trim.
I have a 13 Charger r/t.
Have you tried a load resistor for your turn signals?
Would they work normally after that because yea I have led taillights that’s why it flickers fast lol I don’t really care tho lol
@@srtdad they should. I’ve only had issues with the front hyper flashing. But it should be the same issue from switching to led bulbs.
My 08 rt has bubbles on top of the coolant tank just like yours and coolant is becoming muddy. Is it cause of rusty engine block? Is it serious?
It's very serious, you need to flush it asap, and make sure the correct coolant is in it. Mixing the wrong coolant will sludge the system and that is your current problem.
gotta see this thing on the strip
Don’t worry dude I’ll keep schooling you
A lower temp thermo will only keep temps down with air moving thru the radiator so cruising or freeway…but it’s still going to get hot sitting in traffic that won’t change unless you tune the fans to come on at a lower temp
They are tuned 💯
The thermostat will open up as soon as it hits the temperature that the thermostat is rated for either way.. most likely will need fans if they seem to not work properly or a water pump is the most common I'd say.. you can get a upgraded radiator too..
Do all 2006-10s SRT8s have the live RPM and engine temp? If so, how can you get into that? It only shows me the oil temp on the gauge. 7:38
Ok so if you push your compass button and music button simultaneously for about 10 seconds you will get that menu to pop up it’s kind of a secret SRT menu haha

@@swavymax 🙏🏼💪🏼
It’s also a standard feature on the 09 & 10 body style in the R/T’s got a white 09 R/T & the exact SRT8 you have @srtdad
@@srtdad if these are oil temp in the secret menu what are your temps on the oil pressure side mine reach 230 sometimes
Mine runs at 206 with a tune and stock thermostat. Aftermarket thermostats get stuck too often from what I’ve read.
Yea they do! Unfortunately hopefully this one I put on lasts me a good while! 💪🏼
A lot of them, and I mean a lot of them are chinese junk...and fail within months if not weeks.
Hey bro do you know someone who does alignments in the west valley
Most local shops can do it boss 💯
@@srtdad I don’t know any, been trying to get down to tolleson and phoenix from buckeye
My charger never goes over to 217 I have a 190 thermostat from the dealer
Dude, both your fans need to be replaced. They’re cracked and they’re not blowing correctly. The plastic it’s hot and cracks and the fans don’t work correctly check your fan motors too. I replaced the fans and the motors I took it to the dealer.
Your oil cap is upside down 😁
Your intake is bringing in all that hot air
Yep 🥲
Can’t you get a longer intake ? Kinda going down so it gets better and cooler air ?
