I got in the 95 tonight and started to head in to work. I got heading down the road and then stopped at a red light. I noticed some steam coming from under the hood and pulled into a shopping center where I was under a lamp post. I popped the hood and I seen coolant all over, but no appearant place it was coming from. I checked the hoses and they weree all intact and NEW, I checked the Radiator and it is good (New also) I looked at the Tstat (New also) housing and it is dry.
I am stumped, so I checked the overflow and it is dry. The temp is not skyrocketing on the guage but it is steaming under the hood. So I drive back home and have the GF open the garage and pull some rad fluid out for me. I fill the overflow and wait. No steaming, so i am off to work, through the entire drive I am checking the guage and it is showing good. it never gors above the "no" of normal.
I pull into my space at work and STEAM again!!!!!! I get out of work at 6:30 am and will check under the hood once again before I head home.
When I purchased the car I seen the paperwork that the Radiator, the hoses, the t-stat have all been replaced and I checked them all myself to ensure that all those parts were new. Im pissed right about now because I cant find where the fluid is coming from or why it is overheating.
I am going to check the fan in the am and see if it kicks on, I think it may not be working, which would explain why it heats up at the idle and not while driving.
I am venting more than asking for help, but any idea that I have not thought of is welcome guys and gals.
