Re: 98 Bravada Overheated, trouble starting

Seemed to fix it, but now if I turn off car after driving for awhile, even tho it doesn't show hot, wont turn on until cooled. When my dad was helping me check things, he heard a buzzing/ sizzling noise from around carburetor area. Almost an electrical sound but also like air thru water. Like when as a kid using water to look for a hole in your bike tube? Also strangely, oil pressure guage goes to 0 when trying to start. but goes back to normal once started.
Does it fail to turn over/crank or just no start?
