No Pressure, but have heat and temperaturecomet240 02-25-2007, 02:35 PM i replaced my water pump cuz it broke, but now i cant not get any pressure, i cant bleed system, since no pressure but i have heat and i have water temperature so whats wrong is it the thermostat? does it help get pressure or is something else wrong richtazz 02-26-2007, 08:57 AM I could be a bad radiator cap, t-stat or air trapped in the system, all would cause what you describe. comet240 02-26-2007, 09:39 AM hmm well i dunno i gonna get a new thermostate today, i had the bleeder valve off and was waiting for the water to come out, just seems more difficult used to never have this problem i removed the thermostat havent tested it but it was closed, does a new thermostat come with a new rubber o ring or do i buy that extra? ill probably pick up rad cap also just in case comet240 02-26-2007, 09:39 AM hmm well i dunno i gonna get a new thermostate today, i had the bleeder valve off and was waiting for the water to come out, just seems more difficult used to never have this problem i removed the thermostat havent tested it but it was closed, does a new thermostat come with a new rubber o ring or do i buy that extra? ill probably pick up rad cap also just in case comet240 02-26-2007, 09:40 AM hmm well i dunno i gonna get a new thermostate today, i had the bleeder valve off and was waiting for the water to come out, just seems more difficult used to never have this problem i removed the thermostat havent tested it but it was closed, does a new thermostat come with a new rubber o ring or do i buy that extra? ill probably pick up rad cap also just in case KKLumina 02-26-2007, 10:54 AM The t-stat I recently bought did not include a gasket... re-used the old one. Had I known, I would have bought one though, for sure. Don't know if that's the case everywhere though. comet240 02-26-2007, 10:59 AM ah ill have to see i think ill just re used one on and maybe add gasket maker in never hurts but i gotta wait a few hours or so i need a ride to canadian tire no one around to give me a lift lol Scrapper 02-26-2007, 11:08 AM i'd think the cap since it's not over heating or wire come of temp guage under hood.. comet240 02-26-2007, 12:30 PM i have no clue but if i take rad cap off and let engine run it doesnt boil over though just stays at same spot full Scrapper 02-26-2007, 05:18 PM thats a good thing not boiling over.but look under cap and see if the rubber gaskets is in the radator cap.... comet240 02-26-2007, 06:49 PM well its fixed i had to play with 30 min of running car accelearating and pumping more fluid in it built up rad cap is fine, i had problems of the coolant turning to white foam, but it went away later Automotive Network, Inc., Copyright ©2012
