I need Help!!

[bearring1]

I have a 1995 Saturn sc2 I just changed the heater core and the water pump. It still overheats and leaks water looking like it comes from the center toward the firewall. I check the fluid in the reservoir it shows full. Oh yeah i also replaced the cap because it was coming out of the old one. The fan does work when the ac is on. I have ran it about a year now that way keeping the fan on and its always ran fine. please give some advice thanks!!!

More thank likey its the radiator that is bad. Most last about 11-12 years, so yours is kind of over due. Look online for them rather cheap.

Before replacing it, check to be sure the resiviour is not clogged. There is a hose that goes from the bottom of the resiviour to the water pump area. Disconnect one end (either one) and be sure fluid flows out (have a bucket there to catch it). It should flow very freely.

Also replace your ECTS. This sensor controls the fan when the a/c is not on. You want to replace the one with the 2-wire connector.

Normal operating temps on the highway with the fan off is 1/2 as per the guage. Fan should not turn on untill 1-2mm before red
