Hi guys!!!... from several tries, i found out that my car tends to overheat when he runs for a while and then you park a few minutes with the engine on...
I have the warning light and it turns in those moments.. Of course, i turn the car off inmediately but something is wrong there...
I checked the usual things... the car has no licks but the water pump is not shifter in its axe....
As i am ordering some parts from the USA i´ll order a new water pump and new hoses... new temp sender just to know the warning light is turning on because of the heat and not because of a bad sender...
I´ll clean my radiator too in this days to have it good to go then...
Now... is this the right procedure or i am missing something??? Remember that being from Uruguay, everything i need to change, i have to buy now because the guy who import the car things do that every 2 or 3 monthes...
Thanks!!
