Have you checked for coolant loss or leakage ? If OK then check water temp sensor, both itself and its fuse/wiring. Red.

SOURCE: overheating

1. start the engine and leave the radiator cap open.
2. put a cardboard cover or a rug in the front of you radiator.
3. let it runs 20 minutes or more, see if it is overheated and see the water or coolant in the radiator circulated or not. If not, as soon as you have already changed water pump. thermostate and check the hoses, no leak, I think your radiator was blocked.


Did you put stop leak before?

SOURCE: overheating engine, but no water

Hi.
A number of possibilities...
1/ lack of coolant in system,
2/ coolant supply to interior heater blocked / controls jammed,
3/ failing thermostat switch to engine fan
4/ failing water pump

#2 may be separate problem and I would check out #3 - after #1, of course!
Hope this helps - if not hold the rating and add a comment below. Cheers, D.

SOURCE: 1993 Toyota Camry V6: Engine Overheating Prob

Yes if it hydraulically operated it could be because the pump for the fan is bad. If I am not mistaken the fan is run off of the power steering pump correct. check and make sure the pump is working correctly. I have not seen a hydraulic motor on a car I know they put them on a lot of diesel trucks like humvees and some Chevy diesels but not on a car. Most are usually electrical. I know on humvees with a hydraulic fan they have a fan controller check this and make sure it is working right you can unplug the controller and the fan should stay ingaged and turn faster.

My 98 cutlass is overheating and the heater blows out cold air and I put antifreeze or water and it leaks right out

If your 1998 Cutlass is overheating and the heater is blowing out cold air, and you are also noticing that coolant is leaking out, there are a few possible causes. Here are some things to check:

Check for a coolant leak: Start by checking the engine and radiator for any visible signs of a coolant leak. It's possible that a hose or other part of the cooling system may be damaged or loose, causing coolant to leak out.

Check the radiator: If the radiator is not working properly, it can cause the engine to overheat. Check to make sure the radiator is not clogged or damaged.

Check the water pump: The water pump circulates the coolant through the engine. If it's not working properly, coolant may not be flowing through the system correctly, causing the engine to overheat.

Check the cooling fan: The cooling fan helps to keep the engine cool by pulling air through the radiator. If it's not working properly, the engine may overheat.

Check the thermostat: Even though you recently replaced the thermostat, it's possible that it's not working correctly. A faulty thermostat can cause the engine to overheat.

It's important to address any issues with the cooling system as soon as possible, as overheating can cause serious damage to the engine. If you are not comfortable diagnosing and repairing the issue yourself, it's recommended to take your car to a qualified mechanic.

Engine starts to stall and overheats when idling. Egr valve looks clean, thermostat has been replaced

If all is ok at normal road speeds and overheating only occurs when stationary at idle it indicates insufficient cooling air being drawn through the radiator by the cooling fan, insufficient coolant circulation or both.
Some waterpumps have a plastic impeller that sometimes loses a blade, radiators can become partially blocked with mud and insects and sometimes during repairs a radiator mask is left off for added convenience with the result the fan draws air through almost everywhere except the radiator.

It would be wise to monitor coolant flow during idle to ensure it remains constant - if the degassing system had become blocked or overloaded it could cause the thermostat to close.

Jeep commander clutch fan?

Sounds like a belt may be slipping or bad water pump. Overheating and loosing heat at lower RPM sounds like your not moving enough water through the cooling system, at higher rpm moving just enough water moving to be happy. Check water level and belt tension check bad thermostat not fully opening at temp then water pump. if it were just overheating I would look at the fan but loosing heat is definitely lack of water through heater core.

The car is over heating while sitting still and is fine while in motion the fluids and belts are all good but I recently took it to an auto shop and they suggested that I replace the thermastate and the...

i would check and make sure the cooling fan is operating,if not it will overheat sitting still.a thermostat will cause overheating whether or not it sits still or driving(more so when driving).the same if it has a bad water pump although it may circulate just enough coolant when driving to not overheat with air flow also adding a cooling effect.if you don`t have a leak then i would say the water pump is okay as they usually will leak before causing a overheat problem.make sure the cooling fan is working and the rad does not have anything stopping the air flow over the rad and is not stopping coolant flow in the rad.

1994 Honda Accord Overheating unless Heater is On.

Make sure your fan is working properly. When you turn on the heater you are forcing the fan to cool the radiator. It may not be turning on automatically when it is supposed to. Let us know if this helps..
