105468, overheating
Posted by DSMTalon, Aug-04-07 06:42 PM
ok well my car is overheating...bad. it comes up to operating temp as normal, but then after a bit it keeps on climbing up until it pegs out irregardless if the car is sitting there idling or if im going down the road. the motor is rebuilt, and i put a new water pump, T-stat, and new radiatior and heater core hoses in it. i also put a radiator out of an avenger in it that had 1k miles on it and the radiator cap from that same car that was replaced when the radiator went in. and the radiator cooling fan does come on. at first i was thinking that maybe its because of my FMIC, but i doubt that seriously. however i did have to remove the A/C condenser fan to fit my downpipe, so i wonder if thats making it overheat? and i was also curious about what kind of slimline fans others are using?
