Radiator leaking drivers side

Uh, the actual firing order is 1 2 3 4 5 6. There should be a sticker under hood that shows proper wire routing to the 3 coilsI need help with the 97 3.1 v6 monte carlo ls firing order?
The firing order goes 1-6-4-3-5-2 im pretty sure im not too familiar with v 6's

Check axle hub bearings they could be worn out

You have to bleed the air out of the system. There are 1 maybe 2 bleeders on the front of the engine on the cooling system bypass pipe one near the upper hose the the othe on the drivers side of the pipe. They are brass with a small bleeder valve in the middle. Get the car up to temperature and take your time to allow all the air out. Refill cooling system after it cools. Hope you didn't do any damage running it hot.

have a coolant pressure test done. Have the radiator cores checked for blockage. Sometimes when an engine has sat for a period of time, rust and scale form in the water jackets of the engine. ON running ,this breaks away and blocks the cores of the radiator Other times the old motor tolerates a partially blocked radiator when a relative new motor needs all the cores free to maintain the temperature.

There should be a little bleeder usually located on top of engine that you open when the car is running to bleed the air out. If this hasn't been done you may have air pockets trapped. Also check the fins of your radiator and AC condensor to make sure they are not damaged or full of dirt or debris that will restrict air flow. The inside of your radiator may be getting plugged up. You may have a head gasket leak. If a head gasket leaks exhaust into your cooling system it can cause overheating. If you can run your car with the radiator cap off watch for bubbling. If you notice a bunch of bubbles exhaust may be getting into your cooling system.

Check your belts for dried fluid on them because this happened to my '95 Monte, the radiator pipes leaked onto the belts then dried and caused the squeaking.

Check the thermostat, if it isn't opening when engine warms up, the coolant in the engine will overheat and make pressure in the cooling system but the fluid in the radiator will still be cold.

evidently there is a leak. I would check the hoses, thermostat housing, drain **** for radiator and the fins on the radiator for fluid leaking. The water pump housing and at the weep hole is another place to check. If it is leaking from the fins they do sell a stop leak. Hope this helps tim

there are only two ways to install the thermostat. there are no clock positions . You can only install it right side up or upside down. What is important is that the spring side faces the engine . In other words this spring side goes in first, you shouldn't see the spring after you installed it, before installing the housing that hooks into the upper radiator hose.

there maybe a leak coming from the radiator
