Any vehicle. Start it cold. Feel the upper and lower hoses as the engine warms up. If the hoses warm up the same time it's stuck open. One should get hot and the other stay colder until the engine reaches normal temp. Around 195f. Then the thermostat opens and the other will get hot. If the engine starts to over heat and one hose is still fairly cold it is stuck closed.

How do you find a 2000 tracker front housing diagram?

No coolant, junk thermostat or blown head gasket. Pressure test system to find leaks, check thermostat. Just because it's new doesn't mean it works. Buy quality. To test the thermostat place it in hot water at the temperature stamped on it, and see if it opens. Or take it out completely and put it back together and see if it over heats. ! Warning ! do not cook the engine or you could warp the aluminum head. On_mitch
