i have a heating problem i cant figure out. last week i drove my pantera out for a days ride only to have the guage work its way to the extreme right in a short about of time,about 3mile after the warm up. i firured the thermostat was stuck so i got a 160 from bob at pantera performance and changed it and tested the guage for grounding and changed the sending unit. took it out and it stayed in the 180 to 200 range and hopped on ti a number of times and everything seemed done. i reassembled everything and considered finished. saturday i took it out for a morning run and everything was great. yesterday i went down the road about 4 miles and there goes the guage again pegging to the red. i went stright home and went in my mustang. when i returned i checked the water level and it was full. i checked the overflow tank ,it was almost dry.iam stumped on the heat problem and need help?  i need some suggestions on what to do or try next. it is a bad feeling to want to drive it around and have to feel uncomfortable on how far i can go.  thanks sonny 4233
