I have been battling a long overheating battle with my 89 LX
So far, these parts have been replaced and verified to be in good working condition:
Radiator
Thermostat Housing
Thermostat (180 degree)
When I replaced the radiator, i filled the system with coolant and before i could even start the car, i noticed coolant leaking pretty heavily from the lower weep hole on the water pump!
When i started the car, it started shooting out of both of the weep holes!
But i dont get it, it wasnt doing this before i changed the clogged radiator!
Why was it leaking from the weep hole when the car wasnt even running? i dont get it!
Somebody, anybody, please help.
