Third time's a charm! If it was over heating with a thermostat in that could be because of some other problems with the cooling system...

yes the first time was cause some leaks on the rad. then new rad. but no t-stat, then new t-stat, but some kind of bad flushing, anyway they took off the t-stat, now i point my mech to do the proccess of flushing and installing the t-stat very carefully

BTW my mech is repairing, or changing I don't know which pieces of my steering pump, it was leaking too much, it is gona cost around 130 usd. he's just call me to say that he will have my car until tomorrow cause his provider sent him a piece without a sensor, and mine have a sensor.
Which sensor could my steering pump have???
Is the speed one or something??

I think it was, he was not talking about to change the sensor, but his provider sent him a piece without the connector, but now it is fine.
