ok i have done a search, but i havent found any help. but my temp is getting way high when i get on her... i havnt really noticed with just city driving but when i get on it, it goes right up, does this happen to anyone else? i know it should go up but i dont think that much.

 

R U sure U searched?
There are some good threads out there with a lot of help on heat.

I got mine under control only after getting a new radiator. It was about 100 bucks and it was bigger than the original. It still fit, and the heat problem was over. I had put in a new water pump and thermostat and added a second pusher fan, but nothing even made a difference without the new radiator. make sure you use a fan shroud.

 

try flushing your radiator, or even better get it boiled out. you would be suprized at the gunk build up. and how it can effect the radatior in hard conditions.

 

thats funny...no matter how hard i driver mine the temp doesn't budge...

 

Sounds like either radiator, or water pump. Probably radiator.

 

yea zach's(fb II) doesnt budge either thats why i got so scared cause i have seen him run his and the temp was on the C (or just above) line still haha....(i still have a fan shroud), i just bought the litte girl i will flush her out as soon as i can. im just kinda broke right now

 

did a coolent flush ...looks to have done the trick!!!!. ill let ya know tonight after i get home from work. thanks again!

 

I'm going to flush mine this weekend eventhough I don't have a prob, I just never did it since I got the car. But I never heard of boiling it out...whats the procedure?
