    Car overheats after adding coolant Help!!!

    There is no leak or anything, car over heats really fast no hot air coming when I turn the air on. I don't have A/C or power steering only one belt to altenator. car starts up fine just over heats and all the coolant is gone.



    almost same problem as above but I didn't change any belts. All I did was change master cylinder for brakes.

    You need to bleed the system of air.

      bleed the air out your system like the guy above said but if your coolant is disappearing and there aren't any leaks, you might want to look toward your head gasket. Check your oil for coolant. It'll produce a milky colored substance when oil and coolant combine.

        +1 to this. It should also blow a bit of smoke.
