Im not sure why this car is still overheating. I replaced the water pump, I replaced the thermostat, I bleed the coolant multiple times and it seems like theres a never ending supply of air in the coolant. It never overheats just sitting idleing but when you go to drive it, then it over heats. I have my fan hardwired to come on when the ignition is switched on. The car is perfectly in time.

Im in time, I have a new water pump, thermostat, the fan works and the coolant has been bleed. Theres also no water on the dip stick and the car isn't leaking any water anywhere. Any ideas?

 

head gasket? mine was blown and always overheated when i went driving.

 

You are most likely dealing with a headgasket. As soon as you get driving you build enough pressure for the gasket to open up and cause the overheat condition. There are a few companies that sell kits to check for hydrocarbons getting into the cooling system and they work well.

this is the one I use at work, you may be able to find them cheaper elsewhere.

 

WTF??? lol

sounds like headgasket to me too.any water in the oil or oil in the water?and i hope they would be no water on the dip stick cause if they were that couldnt be a good thing.have u turned the heater core on and filled up all that **** too?hows fast does it over heat when u drive it?

 

radiator old and pugged up/corroded on the inside???

 

 

wow my radiator use to do the samething.when driven at speed of 50 or over it will overheat.i mean u could sit there and watch the needle go up.then if i slow down it can see it go back to normal.

 

Headgasket for sure, had same problem in 2 of my cars.

 

lol the coolant line next to the temp sensor on the cyl head had a tiny hole in it and water was squirting directly onto the temp sensor.

 

try replacing the radiator , (based on my xpirience) b4 puting the head down . better check it fist .

OR, open the rad cap and smell the coolant to see if it smells like exhaust. thats whats making you think you have air in your coolant when its really the pressurized exhaust gas in there.

 

Did anybody read that he found the culprit?

Glad to hear you fixed it man
