Discussion:
Overheating

Hello everyone,

Might sound like a beginner question but guess that's what I am. The unit overheats when it runs for a couple hours, but only if you drive and work with it. On idle in the shop it kept its normal temperature. The radiator is full of coolant and i've bled the pump until coolant came out too.

Any hints on what the issue might be? I was wondering if it could be the pump but since the unit has good temperature on idle it makes me doubt it.

Thanks

Need more info. Is it verified overheating? Like did you read it from any source other than the gauge itself? What's the model? Did you check the thermostat? Did you blow out the radiator?
