Hi guys,

 

I am having overheating problems with the 91 Legacy. When I'm in a stop-and-go area (like on campus), the poor thing starts to overheat. Not only that, but I can hear my fans turn on, after driving for a while then hitting a stop. I'm not quite sure what this means, but I suspect the thermostat. Is there an easy way to check this? I'm going to browse the forum for a bit, but it's just weird that it will overheat so quickly (from reg temp to overheating in under 2 min!) Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Roos do h eat up prety fast so it doesn't suprise me that yours went from norm to super hot in less than 2 min. Maybe your T-stat is sticking. Wouldn't hurt to replace it and see if that clears it up just make sure you put it in the right way.

Flush your system while you have it all out.
