Thanks Mopar for the advice I appreciate it.
Thanks for the reply. Another quick question, when you were having your coolant problems, did you ever have any problems with building up pressure?

Nope not really. Only problem I did have was when I first replaced the t-stat the hose got hard but once the t-stat opened it went soft and never had another problem. Hope that helps...
