Another weird overheating problem? 200 1979

posted by  someone claiming to be B Gouveia on  Sat Dec 29 06:05 CST 2001 [RELATED]

I had a similiar problem where the car would overheat at random times. It would never go into the red zone but just below. I replaced the thermostat and later the radiator with no improvement. What finally fixed the probelm was replacing the water pump. The water pump had approximately 200k miles. There were no signs that the water pump had gone bad other than the random overheating. It did not leak and the bearings were still good.

I hope that helps.
