Good morning
I have a 2016 Ranger 570 EFI mid size. Im having an issue with it overheating. As soon as you turn it on, just sitting there idling the temp rises and continues to rise. The fan does kick on at 205, but doesn't cool at all. I had read about bleeding the cooling system, so tried it via the bleed screw on the thermostat but cant seem to get it completely bleed. It will push some antifreeze out, but wont push out all of the air. Its more of a bubbly flow and then just turns into steam. When it overheats it just continues to push out steam. It will just not cool down. The temp, even though the fan is on it will run all the way up to 240 and then Ill turn it off. It will cool down a little when its off, then Ill fire it back up and same thing.
Im thinking the thermostat, any other ideas? Im at a loss here. Im trying to sell it so I really want to get this fixed.
