    man its possible they could have used a larger radiator on it and that would make the engine run cooler,if the computer doesn't read that the engine is running at least193 degrees it wont switch it over to closed lope mode and that may be whats making it lack in power,id have someone hook a scanner up to it and see if it had been altered any,good luck on it.

    ok, so the considerable turns... Does the engine churn, attempting to start up? If no - verify battery Is the battery stable? if specific - verify starter Is the starter stable? if specific - verify gas furnish/feed/pump some automobiles have a gas pump kill change that turns off gas furnish if the vehicle has been hit (or hit something). If the gas furnish is robust then you definately start up off shifting into themes with the timing, spark plugs, ignition wires, distributor cap and rotor and then onto compression themes.

  • If your heating was not working then why they change the radiator anyway?
