Angry 944 Turbo - 1986 - Overheating...



Hi there !

I'm having problems with my 944 Turbo and I need a "real" answer... My car is overheating since several months ago.. I took the water pump to a shop and it was almost rebuilt (I really don't know what they made it) ... My radiator seems to be working fine since if I fill it with water, covering the outlets with the hands, then, when I remove my hands, the water seems to go out with enough force (I don't know if this can be called a "test")... all water hoses has been replaced, temp. sensors too, I've bled the system, I've removed the thermostat since I live in a country very warm in this season (Chile).. As you can see... I've made "I think" almost all that one can make to solve overheating and I've not had positive results. My questions is the next: It can a bad air/fuel mix or some other engine problem to cause an overheating problem ???.. The oil system is working fine since I've bought all the necessary parts from Pelican Parts and I've almost rebuilt my engine (all gaskets, seals, hoses, sensors, motor mounts, clutch, suspension, valve guides, etc, has been OEM replaced)... Only main bearing set which seems very good, piston rings and valves are still waiting to be replaced...

Will appreciate very much your help...
