overheating

Asked by tendrahn3 Nov 16, 2009 at 01:05 AM about the 1995 Nissan Altima GXE

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

2.4litre, it overheats, even though the bottom rad hose is cold, the rad is full, it has a new waterpump and thermostat. Maybe I put the thermostat in upide down, I don't know, are they just that hard to bleed?

i would double check my work and make sure that thermostat is installed right. If the water pump is not faulty and you bleed the system right i would look into obstruction in the system. check to see if the radiator is hot or cold. make sure temperature is even trhough out the radiator (to check if any of the little tubes are clogged).
