Fluid level OK,replaced thermostat,water pump turns OK and not loose,oil and level are OK.water gurgles while running,added a half gal.more water than drained when replaced thermostat for some reason.gauge goes to hot and no heat.this started while driving with no Pryer problems.first noticed heater went cold then saw temp gauge on hot.
