engine overheating - cleaning radiator fins - moolah_85224 - 09-03-2011 04:00
I am having trouble with my engine overheating - had $1,000 worth of work done
and it's still overheating. Someone suggested I have the engine and radiator
fins steam cleaned - anybody have this problem?

engine overheating - cleaning radiator fins - Leigh - 09-03-2011 04:47
Our '97 was overheating. The replacement of the thermostats fixed it.

'95 WB 42', checked all the fluid levels, checked water pump, put new
thermostats in and now have had the radiator washed. It's a series 60 Detroit,
it doesn't get shut down hot but it will when I hit a mountain.

engine overheating - cleaning radiator fins - Richard Hardesty - 09-03-2011 09:04
My 97 WB with S60 showed it was over heating but used heat gun and was actually 30 degrees cooler than what the guage showed. Put a sticker under the guage saying -30 and have not worryed about it.

engine overheating - cleaning radiator fins - ronmarabito2002 - 09-04-2011 12:43
Have you checked the radiator for stoppage internally? Is your cooling fan
coming on correctly? In most cases, the alarmstat fails so that the fan should
be on all the time, but you might have some other failure. Another thought:
You could have an instrument failure. Check the engine at the water pump with
an infra red thermometer. Another problem could be a blown head gasket.
