You may have the thermostat in upside down, typically you want the pointed side facing UP.

A thermostat that is stuck in the closed position is a very common cause of overheating. A new thermostat should be installed every time the coolant is changed.

1995 Aurora Oldsmobile keeps overheating and you have changed the thermostat and water pump?

If your 1995 Oldsmobile Aurora keeps overheating and the issue is not the thermostat or the water pump, it could be the cooling fan. It might also be the radiator (leaking) or the hoses between the engine and radiator, or the shroud could be clogged or damaged.


Why isn't your antifreeze circulating in 99 jeep grand Cherokee just changed radiator does it need to be bled?

I suspect that either your thermostat is plugged with debris from the radiator change or that the thermostat was replaced backwards. The spring side should be towards the block.


1998 Taurus Overheating-Changed the thermostat and a blown radiator hose and it still overheats with no sign of coolant leaking externally- No milky oil- seams to not be circulating properly?

Flush out the radiator, it could be pluged to the point its not cooling and will blow another hose or worse , head gasket. A good flush would be my choice. Good luck rick

If it's overheating, it cold be thermostat, radiator or possibly other problems. If it's not overheating it could be the coolant level sensor.


Why is my fiat multipla saying its overheating when the fan is running radiator is cold and ive had the thermostat changed?

The thermostat determines when the engine is hot and switches the fans on and off. You know it is working because the fans run. You need to get the water pump replaced, because the coolant is not circulating (that is why the radiator stays cold even though the engine is overheating). Because this requires the cambelt ("timing belt") to be removed and then put back in the correct position afterwards, this is not a simple job and is likely to cost you a couple hundred quid. Take the opportunity to check your service history for if the cambelt is due to be changed in the next 10,000 miles - if it is, you can save money in the next couple of years by getting it changed at the same time.


Acura Legend is overheating?

The most common cause of overheating is a thermostat stuck in the closed position. However, other causes are: faulty water pump, clogged radiator, clogged hose(s), coolant leak or a broken drive belt. I had a 1987 legend with around 160K that was overheating. Antifreeze would boil out of the overflow. I changed my radiator and it fixed the problem.
