Replaced Water Pump, Car Overheats like a mofo now...

07-23-2005, 11:13 PM

I believe it's full, I mean I filled it up twice and the needle after running for 15 mins goes straight to the third quarter when stopped, and hovers just past 210 when moving... The flucutation is quick too... As soon as I start moving the temp goes down to 210 from the 3rd quarter...

Anyway I did fill the new Antifreeze with Water Wetter to see the results... could this have caused the problem? My car has never went past the 1st quarter when moving and never went past 210 when stopped... So whats the deal?...

Is there any way to bleed the system of air?

you def. have some air in the system. there is a little relief valve by the thermostat housing that you can bleed out the air in the system. When I installed my water pump I had the same thing.
