OVERHEATING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello ALL, I have a 91 T/A 305 stock (TPI). The problem I'm having is that when I run the car about 20-30 miles when I stop the car the water in the over flow is way past the hot fill line and is boiling (big time). It will also stall out every time I stop at a light or stop sign when it's hot. I changed the thermostat. Also when the car is cool the color of the coolant in the radiator is green like new and the color in the overflow is brown. It runs fine other than that. No lights on the dash. Any help would be great........

Re: OVERHEATING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The fan on the left works and the right side some told me that it only works when the A/c is on ??? So I dont know if the left side works.

Re: OVERHEATING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you may want to see if they are coming on every time. i had the prob to where my driver side one would not always come on. i just put a toggle switch in and now they both come on at the same time and it is so easy. i had to because i don't have working ac yet... if you would like to know how to wire in a toggle then let me know.

Thanks, I was hoping that someone would know why the coolant is not circulating properly...
