That exhaust gasses in the radiator test Forrest mentioned is a sure indicator. Better than a compression test. From: Jaime Solorza Sent: Monday, September 18, 2017 8:56 AM To: Animal Farm Subject: Re: [AFMUG] OT: S10 Chevy heating issue Yep... going have compression test done...we have

Re: [AFMUG] OT: S10 Chevy heating issue

I wouldn't run without a t-stat. On a lot of cars you need the restriction to give the radiator time to do its job. Sounds to me like if it was smoking (from exhaust?) when heating, you might have a cracked head gasket. It looks like you've replaced everything else. On Mon, Sep 18, 2017 at 9:04

Re: [AFMUG] OT: S10 Chevy heating issue

One thing to check is if you're getting exhaust gases in the radiator. There are kits to test this. On Sep 17, 2017 6:06 PM, "Jaime Solorza" wrote: > My wife bought a 2001 4x4 Chevy S10 Vortec 4.3 from sons wife. We knew it > heated up a little...I replaced water

Re: [AFMUG] OT: S10 Chevy heating issue

A couple of thoughts. We had an older Dodge van with the 318 V8. We replaced the radiator and put in a 3-fin in place of the original 2-fin, and that really cooled it off. Otherwise, replace the radiator instead of just a flush. Also, check the compression. You may be getting blow-by on one

The radiator fan is not electric? If it runs off a belt then fan speed is tied to RPM; same problem only different. -- Original Message -- From: "Jaime Solorza" <losguyswirel...@gmail.com> To: "Animal Farm" <af@afmug.com> Sent: 9/17/2017 8:39:47 PM Su

Re: [AFMUG] OT: S10 Chevy heating issue

S10 would have an electric radiator fan. If it gets hot when you stop, could be a weak fan motor. I had a Cavalier, same engine as S10. It sometimes just ran hot, but hot at 42N lattitude might be very different from 'hot' in El Pasoso maybe nothing is "wrong". -- Original
