Hello,
I just purchased a 1991 318i, and it has been overheating.
The overflow boils before the gauge is half way. The tempurature gauge will change from just barely over half way to close to the red in a moment.
I'm rather sure that the problem is the water pump. Sound right to everyone else?
Where is the cheapest place to get water pump supplies? (found a good writeup on how to change it, so should be set there)
I've tried to bleed the system, but the first step of bleeding the system is letting it warm up, and it boils before then, with cold radiator tubes, so I'm pretty sure it's the water pump.
Thank you all.
