Posted by micyek, Aug-29-03 02:00 AM I had that once to...What was causing it for me was coursion around the casting were you fill the radiator...the water temp sensor in that casting too. I took the radiator hose off and wire brushed it clean and it help for quite awhile..I think I have to do it again though. You might want to check that out...I could tell by crusty ol radiator fluid around the hose. Hope that help ya. | |
