I have a 1998 Pontiac grand am. (3.1) Recently my temprature has been going up more then it should be. I changed the thermostat still didnt go away. Im leaking from the overflow tank and it is gurgaling out anti freeze. Also there is no preasure in the rubber tubing that goes to the engine from what i know there should be plenty of preasure in it. What is wierd is that its at the 3/4s mark on the temp gauage. but some times it goes back where it should be after 10 minutes. I think the fan is not kicking on right. Ive narrowed it down to a coupple of things. Intake manifold gasket. Head gasket. Radiator cap. Or fan not kicking on for some reason. Well if someone could help me out with this that would be most apressheted.
