3 weeks ago you found the upper radiator hose almost completely squeezed in on itself so you replaced the thermostat and upper hose!Also, the cooling system has been flushed and refilled and the cap has been replaced! Could be a partially plugged radiator. Flushing will not always take care of this. I would check the thermostat in a pot of water and thermometer prior to install. I have installed faulty new thermostats. Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. thermostat in upside down ? spring should be in the block dying fuel pump
No thermostat, no coolant, no waterpump. Basically you have no coolant circulating.
Replacing a bad water pump can help to stop a motor from overheating. Hopefully that was the cause of the overheating. If it does not stop the overheating, try replacing the thermostat. Make sure you have the proper mix of antifreeze and water, the radiator filled with it. Check the level of coolant FIRST. Next, the hoses, and third the thermostat. Then, disconnect a hose and see if, by starting the vehicle, if there's water pressure. If not, its water pump time!
Yes it can. A faulty thermostat can cause overheating which will cause coolant to be pushed out of the system.
Low coolant, bad coolant tank cap, stuck thermostat, or clogged coolant line.
Disconnect the battery and drain the coolant.
what is the year make & modle of it??
Low coolant? Thermostat not opening? Water pump not circulating coolant?
Low coolant? Cooling fan not working? Thermostat not opening? Water pump not circulating coolant?
coolant temperature switch turns on the fan, if the fan isn't running the car's overheating...it's a sensor mounted in the coolant line that detects coolant temp.
Very possibly. You can check a spark plug and see if they are wet or you can see if there is gasoline in the coolant liquid.
2 things I can think of which need to be checked: your coolant and your thermostat.
Probably the thermostat is sticking.
