Q: Over heating issue
My car over heated for first time yesterday. There is no water leaking from the water pump, the coolant in the main tank is filling down to the bottom tank then just leaking out of the man made hole in that bottom over fill tank. What could be wrong? And or need replaced. I didn't want to go through the trouble of replacing water pump if it isn't that. But you don't see any leaks from water pump
