just cruisin down freeway today and after about 15 minutes at a 100 k's the temp gauge slowly rose to high point of normal.the pointer hit the O,i pulled over and the top up tank was really gurgling as if air was in system,i put the heater on to try and see if it would make a difference but no change,the heater sometimes runs hot through the vent and sometimes runs cool air out,i changed the coolant last week,have i got a air lock problem or could it be something else,any help aprreciated bab.ps it is a series 2 ef fairmont with 120000 kliks on speedo

did you add the coolant the propper way..turn the .heater to full.... fill it up with the cap off and run the car for about 5 minutes......
top up as nessecary..... this purges any air that might have been in the system... |
