how would i no if i had an air lock?

[ryan]

i had been having problems with my injector light coming on, so i took it for a diag an found out it was the engine temp sensor, so i replaced that the other day and blocked up the connectors that go to the air box as i have a new induction kit (had it ages just never bothered removing air box) for a month or so i left this connectors unblocked, but i had the mechanic block them up for me, and since he has done that and fitted my new temp sensor, i have been getting the light on every time i go down hill ( the temp drops to below the markings)
could this mean i have an airlock or something to do with the connectors?
cheers

Vent the sistem, it could be an air lock or the thermostat is faulty. The airlock manifests it self usualy by low temp all the time. In side heater not working right - not heating inough.

Maybe you need to know

Airlocks cause overheating as the waterpump can't pump air.
