Question

Radiator overheating.


Sent to Car Experts July 28, 2006 11:56 a.m.

I have a 1996 Altima which has been running fine up until now. It seems to be overheating and the radiator seens to be overflowing with a dark colored substance only from the radiator cap. Im not sure if I need to have the waterpump or the thermonstat replaced or to just have a complete radiator flush.
