People that own cars with this kind of engine compartment are really trying. Baba, sell that car and buy a modern car. With engine like that, why won't it overheat? |

Praxtech: You can't jump into conclusion that the thermostat is responsible for this issue. So many things can be responsible for that. But I advise that he takes the car to a competent car technician, the cause of the overheating will be figured out n rectify. U see if there is leakage around the cooling system, radiator blockage, bad thermostat, burned gasket, presence of air in the system, bad water pump, a failed cooling fan, bad coolant sensor, faulty radiator pressure cap etc overheating will occur n it all depends on the tech on the car n what actually happened with the car. |

Fuel pulp has nothing to do with overheating, if your top gasket is still intact, check water pump also ensure your 2 fan is working and in good contrition. This will solve the problem. |

I remember when my Honda civic '92 model was overheating anyhow and everywhere. Kai, I saw hell. I had to be parking after every 2-3km to add water to the radiator or be driving at 20km/h. The experience is not a good one o! OP try the following: 1. check to see if there's a leak in the cooling system (radiator, water pump, hose, etc) and fix it. 2. Inside your radiator may be dirty and may require an internal wash as the type of dirty water we use in our radiators here in naija sometimes may eventually clog it up and prevent free flow of water within the radiator. I believe the overheating will stop if the above are solved. |

Buy the biggest radiator that can fit in there. I had similar problems with a mazda 626 '95 model. I did everything and nothing worked until I changed the radiator to the biggest that could fit into the car. It stopped immediately. Overheating simply means the car is not getting enough coolant...in this case water. The reason may be leakage or inadequate water which is where this big radiator matter comes in. |

7pages: Plz, dont forget to give update. I am interested in seeing how this is solved. I had very few overheating issues with my formal car. First was caused by the fan not running well because of partial contact of the positive terminal of the battery. Second was as a result of punctured radiator while on motion. I hate overheating. I intend never to remove the thermostat of my present vehicle. So help me God 1 Like |
