tonight i quick ran to the store and when i got back in the garage i notice some heat waves coming out of the hood...i pop it open and i can literally hear coolent in the radiator hose boiling inside...something has to be very wrong...any ideas? I am throwing an error code on the dash..it looks like the chevy symbol with red wavy lines over it.. Its the one right over the battery code..Im sure this has something to do with it. Plus how hot to the touch is my water cooler suppose to be cuz thats also also rather hot. I dont have my sensor hooked up to my watercooler...does that have anything to do with it. .? Thanks guys

Ryan

Ok fella,

i get that alot too.......

you don't say but it is a 3s g'T'e you have under the hood ??

the warning light thats coming on is not in my celica hand book (yes i got the users manual)
but i'm told it's you 'Cat' converter over heating!

this is cause from it getting dirty and clogged from sitting with the engine running......

only 205 dashboards have this lamp as i understand due to the extra heat from the engine in full boost smile.gif

Answer take of your 'CAT' and get a straight though down pipe smile.gif

your best bet would be to check out one of the GT 4 sites like www.gt4ec.net

Good luck mate
