Re: help! coolant not circulating????

is it the correct pump and not a reverse flow? also i have seen the impellers come loose on the shafts(not very common)

test the thermastat(or take it out and run it)

do a flush of the system(you would be amazed at what can come out of a cooling system)

belt slipping?

try a differnt guage

did you "burp" the system? it probally shouldve did it its self after a short ride.

in some cases a leaky head gasket can/will make it run hot, but you would notice bubbles in the rad
