put on ac in car and over heats
Take the thermostat out, start the car and let it idle, see if it over heats. With the thermostat out of your car, it should just constantly circulate water, making it take longer to heat up. If it heats up fast then chances are that your pump is out. DO NOT LET THE CAR REDLINE.
I would start by changing the thermostat. They go out, often, or have a tenacy to stick, and are cheap.
Yes, on most cars it will.
Either 2 things...it breaks down...or it explodes
Is the car filled up with antifreeze? Had the same problem, turns out there wasn't enough antifreeze in the system.
Can be many things. If the car is over 10 years old suspect a vacuum leak.
If there is an erratic idle then the idle air control valve can be malfunctioning. First perform an engine diagnostic to see if there are any malfunctioning sensors. The ECU will the be able to determine if the idle air control valve is broken.
Need to change your thermastat i have done that but still over heats when driving
crack the engine block and oil mixes with water or antifreeze.
