Hello All,
I need some help on this issue or maybe a link on a previous thread. My truck was slowly overheating, I was smelling coolant but not seeing any leaks. First the top hose was very hot and the bottom hose to the radiator somewhat hot, after keeping an eye on this for two weeks and checking for leaks (no leaks) it completely overheated, changed thermostat but no joy. The thermostat was good. Now, the top hose is very hot and the bottom hose to the radiator cold. Could this be my water pump? no leaks or noise. Also oil looks good and no smoke or steam from tailpipe. This truck has 120K miles. Any advise will help. Thanks!
