    Also check the thermostat, another possibility of over heating is a blown head gasket. If that is suspected have a simple chemical test called a block check done it looks for the presence of carbon monoxide in the cooling system which would only be present if the head gasket failed. Autozone have some popular workshop manuals for free on line once you register (for free) on their website http://bit.ly/autozone_repair_info. There is a company that independent auto repair shops get their information from, this same information is available inexpensively for people that work on their own cars.. The information is year make and model specific, covering repair procedures, torque specifications, fluid capacities and specifications, service bulletins, component locations, wiring diagrams ect.... Alldata is very easy to navigate http://bit.ly/AllData_Repair_Manuals_Online
