Cracked head Cracked block Head gasket installed incorrectly
Yes, if the belt tension is not tight enough it won't spin the radiator fan due to slippage. Replace the tensioner pulley.

If they are collapsing after the engine is off, the rad cap is bad. The cap needs to allow pressure back in as the engine cools off.
Engine Coolant is probably coming out of a small hole on the bottom of your water pump. This usually means your seals are gone in the pump and that the pump should be replaced. This happened to my '93 Jeep Grand Cherokee on I-40 near Knoxville about 3 years ago. NEW ADDITION: I am having the same problem with my 94 grand Cherokee today, we replaced the water pump and the problem still persists, there may be a hole in the radiator like mine.. just replace the radiator.. that's what im doing

Subaru 2.5 liter engine has a problem with head gaskets. If you have not had your head gaskets replaced, that is the first thing I would suspect.
Yes, but indirectly. Without the radiator cap in place, or using a faulty radiator cap, you run the risk of overheating the engine, which can cause head gasket failure.
NO it will not, It will cause other problems like stoping up the heater core and radiator. You MUST replace the intake gaskets.
Perhaps thermostat is not opening
what could cause a 2004 grand am to run hot? we have put new head gaskets on, water pump, thermostat, and cleaned the radiator.
Blocked radiator, low on coolant, stuck thermostat, air in cooling system
Inoperative radiator fan.
I would start at the thermostat. Problems with the radiator and head gaskets are usually presented as visual leaks. But clogged passages in the radiator would also cause overheating issues, so have the cooling system flushed.
Radiator, radiator cap, radiator hoses, water pump, coolant reservior and heater core are the more obvious areas. If you notice coolant in your oil it can be caused by a blown head gasket or damaged coolant sleeve in the head of the enging. If you cannot see any coolant leaks outside of the vehicle, check the floor mats on the interior. If you find coolant there, it more than likely is a heater core.
yes
I’m not sure, but it stands to reason if they take a 3 core off they should put a 3 core back on…
