It's driving fine now. Looks like the cap just failed, like we figured. I was able to verify that the cooling fan is functioning properly.
Since I was curious, I went through the records and found when the previous owner replaced the gauge cluster, then added that to the current mileage. That car actually has 262,891 as it sits right now. Crazy for a 2000 model, but still going. (hopefully still going strong.) Good luck! Maybe you'll now get another 262K miles. |

but yea, that cap in my f/s thread is oldddddd, but it still worked fine when I took it off. I took it off because i replaced it with a 1.3 radiator cap that came with my aftermarket oil cap |
i could be the water pump thats what it sounds like to me
