someone please

 

lets hope that block gaurd isnt doin it. have you done a compresion test. could be a warped head. not to sure though

 

here is a trick i was told, cut out the center section of the thermostat that way there is a lil restriction and put it back in. run a whole bottle of red line water wetter. my car did the same thing but its good now. and maybe get a new fan from pep boys they work good and arent as expensive as FAL.

 

How about you water pump. If the coolant is not flowing it won't cool!

 

how do you know its overheating??? what signs is it giving, over flow filling etc.

the temperature gauge is usually all the way up when i'm just cruising around for a while...
the water pump is also brand new when i had my block built they put in a new water pump...
i also had my compression check about a month ago and it was 190 across the board...

 

If the gauge is all the way up and you drive around like that, then you probally did major damage, like warped head and possibly block too. . .

 

Why don't you start doing an elimination process.
