remove the thermostat from the car - if you are still having cooling problems look for collapsed hoses - broken impeller on the water pump...

Re: EG Overheating prob....Advice needed badly (neutron89)
OK...changed out the thermo...didnt help.....took the thermo completely out and still the same issue....WTF any other opts before i look at the pump.. the only other thing is a rad cap nothing is leaking or anything...oh yeah and i was sqeezing the hoses and i dont feel anything flowing through them...i should be able to right...so it looks as if it may be the pump
