Just got done changing the water pump on the good old 7afe. Now I am running into a major problem. The water is not curculating through the engine.
The radiator is full, and the engine still over heats. The return hose is boiling hot when the engine is warm, while the return line stays cool to the touch. Whats wrong? I got a sugestion to prim the system, how do I do that? |

I had this problem on my MKII GTi. The water pump went out one day and it overheated. When I took it to my shop they replaced the water pump and the thermostat was broken, so they replaced that as well. After they did all that and turned it on it wouldn't circulate. They took the thermostat off and put my broken one on. It circulated fine. They did that several times and to no prevail. I cut my losses and got my Celica.
