92 Turbo Running Hot

wvfed1 · 10-06-2005, 12:29 AM

I just joined this. I am pulling my hair out over my car. I paid top dollar for this car and I am having cooling problems with it already. I hear the sound of a waterfall. My car has been running hot. I put in a new radiator, timing belt, and waterpump. My car is with my mechanic. He tested the compression and he said it was good... but he doesn't specialize in Supras. What is wroing with this thing? If it is a HG, can someone please provide me with step by step instructions to replace the HG and what needs to be done with the head before installing a new HG? Also I would need to know what type of HG to buy and where to buy it.
Thanks.

i dont know about the make engine style of your supra but mine did the same thing i blew a hose in the back of the block right were ur spark plug wires are over heated really fast and sometimes slow come to find out it was a water hose also check all the hoses that set under the distibuter cap if there hard, etc probally need to replace them.
