LOL my car got hot again, but I caught it before it overheated.

I drove it around this morning after I fixed my rubbing sound and noticed that it started to get hot rather quickly. Shut it down, and noticed that the coolant isnt moving again as only 1 side is hot...last time I ran it, both sides were warm. Could my waterpump be working only some of the time?

I'm going to check for air in the system again, since it's possible a bubble moved around from when I dropped her from the jackstands.

So......



If my car had a bad headgasket, I would have:


Overheating problems
White smoke
Milky oil

Well, right now I have all of those. I'm waiting for the engine to cool again so I can check the oil.

Man this sucks. I have to rip out the engine and do this all over again? It took me forever last time

I'm an idiot fixed this small problem

Dud sounds like a blown headgasket, hopefully no damage was done to the heads.

Yeah I know it sounds like a blown headgasket...the friggen thing is brand new (well 30k miles according to the import place)

It's miserable. I might have to sell this whole project and lose ALOT of money. I'm so pissed.
