My VW MK1 boils out coolant
I tried to change the thermostat but to my suprise there was no one installed(this suggests that there have been a problem with the cooling system and they decided to remove the thermostat as a short term solution). I fitted the thermostat and the temparature rised almost to the top and the radiator fan kept kicking in. I had no choice at the time but to remove it.
I am suspecting the water pump because when i flashed the system, water was running out fine from the bottom hose of the radiator.
Maybe the water pump is pumping less coolant than its suppose to, which in turn lets the same coolant in the engine for a longer time.
There is no coolant leaking around the water pump but i am highly considering replacing it, is this a good move?
Unfortunately i'm not sure yet how i upload pic but u can view them on my facebook at
