My car runs really hot, even with the heat on.. i installed an e-fan and it still gets really hot.. i changed my coolant and it still does this.. how can i check if my water pump is bad?? how do i know if my radiator is bad also??
thanks |
V8?
|
dude, no wonder you swap out the 13b for a V8.
check your thermostat. whenever the car gets hot, your t-stat pops open and allows more coolant to be rushed in. |
lol ok...
i read somewhere to drill a hole threw the t-stat to allow better cooling? true? |

Theres a bleeder hole on the waterpump. Pisses when its bad.
Is the coolant coming out of the overflow tank? |
no, i shut off the car before anything that serious happens..
