My 98 SVT is very slow to warm up and also runs too hot in steady highway driving. 12K miles ago the car ran really hot and I replaced the waterpump with a metal impeller one from NAPA so I don't think it's the waterpump.
Seems like something is impeding coolant flow. This doesn't sound like a fan issue, does it? I'm suspecting either the thermostat or just a random clog in the system. I also didn't change the belt on the WP when I changed it, though I don't think a faulty WP would cause the car to be slow to warm up.
Thanks for any suggestions.
