My Omega 3 litre (Enlish version of the Catera) suddenly took to overheating in 2 miles. It was caused by blocking of the airflow through the aircon condenser,...

I agree. They are probably the best mechanics i've ever dealt with. I live in Santa Monica so I was able to have them install the engine too. Any leak, funny...
Can someone tell me when the Aux Water Pump is supposed to be on? I'm running a little hot, and think this might be the culprit. To be specific, it's the...
Shame on you, Steven. How could you post a message to the group offering something Scott doesn't like? And that doesn't even scratch the surface, we got a much...

I apologize for giving the wrong directions. The L.H. water pump only runs when the temp. reaches 90 degrees Celsius or 194 F. My manual is for a '98 and it...
At what point on the gauge would 194 degrees be? I let the gauge get to 1 hash past center. The fan kicked on, but no action from the pump. Like I said...

If I've got things right, the OEM thermostat is 198 degrees. If the pump is called on a 194, then it should be somewhere around the middle of the gauge....
Are you sure it is not running at all? Do you get power to it at 194 degrees? The fact the engine's running at just past midpoint on the gauge doesn't mean...
