At first my car overheated and i had it towed back to my house. I changed the thermostat, radiator, coolant, and flushed the system but for some unknown reason the tends to overheat after five minutes of usage under driving, it doesnt do it when it idles. So i looked at the thermostat and modified it to make sure water was consistantly flowing but it had no effect. Also the heater inside the cabin doesnt blow hot air when the car is overheating. Anyone have any ideas????

Ok i think i have figgured out that the reason it is overheating is that the exhaust gases are leaking into the coolant system somewhere but i dont know where that could be does any one have an idea????

Check out if the cooling fan is running when the car is hot.
Start the car and let it warm up. Continually check the fan to see if it will come on as the temperature goes up. Ifthe fan comes on, check to see if it is running fans to produce enough cooling. -------------------- West_Minist
