Re: overheating after 5minutes of driving
same thing happened to me. IT WAS NOT THE WATER PUMP! it had simply gotten low on coolent. it didn't have enough coolent to keep it below the boiling point. everytime the temp hit 250-260 and droped back to 200 it was the radiator cap letting off pressure, letting even more coolent out.95 Firebird<br /> <a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/673250\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/673250</a> <br /> <a href=\"http://photobucket.com/albums/y217/andrewbrandon19/\" target=\"_blank\">http://photobucket.com/albums/y217/andrewbrandon19/</a> <br /><br />me on a good day------> <a href=\"http://communicatio.webblogg.se/images/wet_cat_113159625.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">linky</a>
