OP jeff649 Newbie J Joined: Nov 2002 Posts: 9	Just wondering what the chances of a metal impeller WP impeller installed 10,000 miles ago going bad? My radiator all of a sudden overheated. Has a new thermostat replaced same time as WP. Blows hot air when I need it. Help!!!!

Are the radiator fans coming on? Any CEL codes? Hot air, maybe faulty thermostat. At $8 each, seems too cheap not to try a new one. What is the coolant strength?
