Subject: Over heating
Question: Mistubishi Galant 94 i think it is an ES.
Well my car once over heated as a friend was driving it and the water pump ws replaced.
Now the car is still over heating and the radiator has no leak, the water pump is now but i guess my belts are old too. So is it the belts that could be the problem or the thermostat?
Answer: Faith,
Your belts should always be replaced when changing your water pump. You should make sure your oil level is normal and that you're using the correct viscosity. Its also a good idea to replace your thermostat. If its stuck closed, you will defiantely overheat. You should also have your coolent checked for the correct mixture of anti-freeze and water.
Good luck!
