RE: [DML] Cooling System Problems - still

["John Hervey" <john@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Woody,
If you have an original radiator it could be clogged up, You could have
leaves & debris between the radiator and condenser coil that blocks air flow
or a bad  thermostat. Then as you know the otterstat turns the fans on could
be bad or a broken connection.

Thanks for all your replies to my previous post. Unfortunately, I'm
still experiencing cooling system problems. . . OVERHEATING

I discovered the otterstat is not working so I used a jumper wire to
get the fans to run, but still overheats.  I also bled the system but
still overheats.

The car doesn't behave like I've previously experienced with a blown
head gasket:  No engine miss, no vapor in exhaust, no signs of exhaust
in coolant.

Could this be thermostat related?  The temp. gage shows overheating,
but the radiator (or coolant bottle) cap does not blow.  It is a new
cap and opened at 15.5 psi with the pressure tester.

Could the problem be the water pump? The pump is a little noisy but
shows good flow into the coolant bottle.

Thanks again for your help.

Woody
