[QUOTE="FJRay, post: 1285447, member: 312"] Possible but I doubt it. The pump is gear driven through 90 degree bevel gears in a manner that makes you scratch your head and parts are as hard to find as honest politicians. We did have one defective head gasket in the beginning(leaked coolant as soon as I poured it in) but after replacing it and block testing there was no leakage at that time. I would go after the radiator first cause it's the easiest to get to and although its new OEM I would go after the thermostat next. It took it quite a few miles to overheat so I would suspect a coolant flow problem [/QUOTE]
