Have you tried replacing the thermostat? I had an '80 L-82 Vette that did the same thing.Turns out it was a stuck thermostat.

Like someone else said, I think it is time for a sig change  Also, if you can't afford a tow truck, how are you going to afford a new car payment?

Is that language really needed? Does it really help you?

Yep, but I don't like the language. Never did, never will. It adds absolutely nothing to a post, other than to lower the quality of our site. Read the rules. They state, in part:
"Posts containing vulgar, profane, abusive, racist or hateful language or expressions, ....... will be deleted and actions may be taken against the originator. Attempts to defeat the built-in censor will be met harshly."
I'm seeing more and more attempts to "defeat the built-in censor". Read the posts in question.
I too would be upset if my car broke down. It's done it several times, and I've been upset every time. Crude and vulgar language does not help anything.
I'm not picking on any person or individual. But it seems to me that too many people can not talk or write with out using profanities, and they usually do so intentionally, by intentionally mis-spelling words to defeat the built in censor.

I will agree that there are alot of Unnecessary words in his post. As you stated your not picking on any person or individual but almost everyone covers up there cuss words(even admin). If I got a dollar anytime someone said somthing vulgar, or Inappropriate on this site I'd be a millionaire. Now everyone is different but personally by swearing and cussing(if something bad were to happen), helps me relieve my anger. It's not supose to solve anything rather to help remove the anger in a safe way.
