Re: Overheating
By water, I hope you mean a 50/50 coolant mixture......
If you keep adding and and there is no external leak, and there is no white smoke out of the exhaust, you may not have burped all the air out of the system on your initial refill......
There is a great little device out there by Lisle Tools......it's a large yellow funnel, that has attachments for you to attach the funnel to the top of the radiator, in place of the cap......what this does is, you maintain coolant just above the bottom of the funnel.......run the vehicle.....then when the car get's up to temp to open the thermostat, the water pump sucks the coolant out of the funnel, allows air in the sytem to vent out, and the level drops.....you then add coolant just enough to cover the bottom of the funnel.....this gets rid of any air pockets in the engine......
