[QUOTE="SHANNON LAWRENCE, post: 981317, member: 63459"] What a day..my 2002 track decided can get warm today. I was on the way to work today and within about 15 to 20 minutes at highway speeds the temp gauge went straight to the red. Well I got pulled over to the shoulder and popped the hood to the sound of hissing near the thermostat housing and a whole bunch if steam. I let it cool down added some coolant and limped it back to the house...barely. the temp gauge would go up and then down, then back up..and so on. When I got home my beloved trac was marking its territory on the driveway. The puddle seems to be coming from the back half of the engine compartment with the puddle basically accumulating under/vicinity of cat convertor The hissing sound is coming from near the Tatar housing and I must have air built up because when it heated up I released the vent on the Rad cap and it popped the overflow tank cover off. To make matters worse....no heat at all....just the heat from the motor...lol. thanks for any help [/QUOTE]
