[QUOTE="hondacr500af, post: 170466, member: 1399"] Well I bought a 1984 chevy Camaro last year for my wife. I bought the car to be her car to drive and my car to restore and modify. The Camaro is a 305 and a week 305 at that. I do not have the cash to buy the motor I want to replace the 305 with. I found many but no cash yet. So anyway the car has a major overheating problem. It has blown hoses multiple times. I have replaced all hoses at least twice. the thermostat once. Ok so the timing chain is shot Can not believe it has not broken yet. The timing is also causing the engine to overheat. Well, the other day my wife was driving home from work. It acted like the hose blown again the way it was pouring out. Wrong, the water pump took a shit. So I decided I can not buy another engine just yet. So bite the bullet and take a chance to replace the timing gears and water pump. While tearing the car down I pulled the radiator. I had a hard time pulling it because of the leaves and other debris between the two radiators. So there is another reason for it overheating.
