Okay so I have a 2000 STS. I replaced the thermostat ,water pump, coolant temp sensor, and reservoir. It used to over heat right away but after flushing the coolant it doesn't overheat while driving.

Heater cores on early 90s Cadillacs are a weak point. Let's all share our experiences on what we have tried, sucessfully and unsuccessfully to resolve issues and get the good heat back. Perhaps this thread might make a good "Sticky". I have a 1993 DeVille and a 1992 Seville and I've been...
