[QUOTE="jarance, post: 351284, member: 21"] licia.. first is what type of model. year is your car.. Different engine have different characteristic. So we need to know in order to help you. You mentioned that you have a water pump problem which caused your engine to overheat. When it happen, did you topped up the water when the engine is HOT. How do you determine the head gasket is fine. Any compression done on it for individual cylinder. Note: when you open the top head for inspection, it is normal to change the whole set of gasket. ICV only affect your idling speed but it does not affect power. Check the radiator when the engine is cold. Open the radiator cap and rev the engine to high speed (around 3000 rmp). Do you see any bubbles when the water is returning back.. btw.. pls introduce yourself in the newbie to beak the ice.. cheers. [/QUOTE]
