I just scored an '87. :guitar: It runs fine, but overheats quickly. :flamemad: The electric fan is mising, but that shouldn't make it do this. It's only about 20 degrees here.
This thing has a brand new radiator, water pump and t-stat. I can't feel the pump working in the top hose, but when it starts to heat up, the system builds up pressure and holds it. Remove the hose from the t-stat, and nothing but hot steamy air comes out. Fire it up with top hose removed and it jets out water erratically. I guess my question is, can a head gasket leak only pressurize the cooling system, and have no mixing or steam???
Thanks guys!!!!
