[QUOTE="affan66, post: 125675, member: 65"] check and see if your fan is working okay. Easiest way - get someone to switch off the engine while you watch the engine. The fan should stop immediately when the engine stops. If it doesn't, the fan clutch needs replacement. another way to check: roll a bunch of newspapers like a mini-baseball bat. Try and block the fan fins with the newspaper. If the fan stops immediately when the newspaper roll touches the fan, the clutch fan is weak. One more thing to check: air in coolant. Make sure you bleed all bubbles out from the bleeder valve. Check and see if the bleeder valve o-ring is okay. Might want to change this as well. [/QUOTE]
