Overheating 4AC Sprinter (Still!!!) Tue, 04 February 2003 01:20 Go to next message
Hey Guys,

Im trying to narrow down the problem of my overheating sprinter ;(

At first I thought it was the thermostat, replaced that and still overheating. My mechanic sugested it is probably a cracked heat, I replaced that and the car runs great but still overheats ;(

My only other idea is a stuffed radiator? Anyway to test this? Or is there anything else I should take a look at?

Thanks in adavance!

Luke aka Necros

yeah just take it off , takes about 5 minutes then put a garden hose to the top hose port and flush it untill clean water comes out then just for good measure turn it upside down and put to hose to the bottom hose port and do the same. you can also by a bottle of radiator and coolant system flush which you put in and run then flush , this might help you.
