hey guys and girls... had a spot of bother yesterday the car wouldnt start. i managed to get it started but i have noticed that the car is now overheating.
i think this is possibly because of the water pump. (bare in mind im not looseing any water)
*the temp rises but water stays cool..
*i cant see any loss of oil ( but maybe possible the head may have gone.) (HOPE NOT"")
*i removed thermo swith an bypassed it to make sure the fan was working.. i also left the car run hot b4 i activated the fan.. ( temp still rises ) i will check tomorrow.. i will degrese the engine an top up with clean oil.. check for leaks.. but i think the problem could be the pump!!
what would you think ?
what are the most common faults with overheating on a punto??
