Sent to Car Experts August 28, 2006 7:43 a.m.

yes I have a 1994 cadillac northstar engine that has new heads but, it started running hot and the water pump had went bad. So, I changed out the water pump and thermostat it ran fine for about a hour and then the hot engine light shut down engine light and a/c compressor shut/off all came on. I need to know if there's a reset button for the computer or is it possible that trash got into the thermostat and caused it to malfunction because I put straight water in it before I put antifreeze in it. Then it started steaming from both tailpipes but no water was in the oil. Could the exshalt senor be bad?

Optional Information:
1994 Cadillac concorse 4.6 northstar

Already Tried:
changed water pump and thermostat
