Re: Overheating PLEASE HELP!!!
Question-- are you seeing any mist coming out of your vents when you turn on the air?

Re: Overheating PLEASE HELP!!!
have you bled the coolant for air pockets?
have you done a compression test for possible blown headgasket? checked the plugs? If a plug looks rusted that's a sign of coolant getting into the cylinders, blown headgasket. how much CFM does the electric fan blow, and how do you have it setup to run? Is it running constantly, or is it cycling on/off allowing the car to overheat? |
