Default RE: Overheating

Well its&amp\\;nbsp\\; pick and pull, and although there not new the cars are there for three reasons, bad thras bad engine or accident so most of the time those types of parts are still good.&lt\\;br&gt\\; &lt\\;br&gt\\; If you mean jump the motor on the fan, it works. The fan will only go on now whent he needle hits the&amp\\;nbsp\\; top. I drained all fluid, put in new fluid. The fluid inside the radiator will go into the coolant container, but seems like it won’t go back from there into the radiator which doesn’t make much sense. Car doesn’t seem to drive too badly even with the needle spiking so perhaps it is running through the rad and engine but the fan just isn’t cooling it as it goes through?&lt\\;br&gt\\;

&lt\\;/P&gt\\;
&lt\\;P&gt\\;&amp\\;nbsp\\;&lt\\;/P&gt\\;
&lt\\;P&gt\\;if this was happing it would only get hot wen you are in heavy traffic or stop to the point that air isnt flowing thru the radi.&lt\\;/P&gt\\;
&lt\\;P&gt\\;&amp\\;nbsp\\;&lt\\;/P&gt\\;
&lt\\;P&gt\\;&amp\\;nbsp\\;&lt\\;/P&gt\\;
&lt\\;P&gt\\;

&lt\\;/P&gt\\;
&lt\\;P&gt\\;&amp\\;nbsp\\;&lt\\;/P&gt\\;
&lt\\;P&gt\\;it should suck the extra coolant form the resivore when your driving. if it doent youll need a new radi cap, &lt\\;/P&gt\\;

It stills spikes but, the car seems to drive fine, I can even start off with just the clutch with out any abnormal wanting to stall..If the fluid can go from the rad to the resevior how come it can't go back the other way?
And anyone have an answer to the fans response?
