    overheating/fixing

    Can you be a little more specific on the water pump deal. I ask because on long trips I overheat. By long trip I mean traveling about 45min to two hours on the interstate. On the interstate, driving is fine and it doesn't overheat, as soon as I get off the interstate it will overfill and...

    overheating/fixing

    What is the stock thermostat? 180 or 190. What about running a 160? I have stuff I need to look into for the cooling but thought I would remove/replace the thermostat while I'm messing with it just to be sure. I need an AC condensor fan and for some reason my intercooler fan will not come...

    Thermastat
