I have changed the thermostat, but the new thermostat does not seem to be opening. The hose from the engine to the radiator is hot, yet the hose from the radiator to the thermostat is cold. Could the problem be the water pump, which was replaced only a year ago, or something else? way2old Veteran / Moderator Jan 13, 2008, 1:41 PM Post #2 of 5 (2862 views) Re: Overheating Sign In Not to sound mean, but are you sure the thermostat is in properly?

If it still does not change anything them it might be the water pump.

But like way2old said it could be waterpump.   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
