I have a 1993 Dakota truck with 140,000 miles on it. I just replaced the radiator but noticed that no water is running through the top hose. It takes me 20 minutes to get to work, and it didn't run hot. Is this normal? Thanks!

I know this may sound crazy, but when you changed the radiator did you fill it completely up. run the truck and then check it again for proper level.

What might of happened is that,"sometimes you can get air pockets while filling the radiator" and think its full and it not be, simple right, well it happened. Just recheck the level and see how that goes.

I am just giving you my expeirence with repairing my own trucks and cars through out the years.
