10. If the reservoir is still full

Edited on Wed Jun-23-04 08:51 AM by Frodo

there whould be water in the radiator. But you do need to see if there's anything in there. Don't do this while the engine is hot... and if you open it anyway (say with a towel), don't add water to a dry hot radiator - you're asking for a facial steam peel.

Could be a bad thermostat, or a coolant leak. Neither is all that expensive to repair.

Could also be a water pump. A little more, but not an option.
