thank you but i think i will go on a new oem one just to be quiet from this area (i had once bad t-stat). another Q is how do i check that the water pump working good. because service book just say to check turbolant when radiator cup open and it doesnt sound good way to check.

Im sorry maybe i didnt write it corect i ment the thermostat that control the flow of water in the radiator and not the thermo switch for the fan . the engine overheating also in open road in 120-130kmh.

i am happy to say that the problem solved and max on the road again happy and cool very cool (below the middle of the white scale on the open road) there was a dirt in the system but the main was the radiator cap that open too early and keep open to much even that he was new.( not original )...

o.k but its not stops there the temp still going up and i dont take any chances and its not as before. and when the fan goes in its not helping. (i didnt try overide the fan to work from the start. but i think the wind in open road much stronger than the fan. i will try that too)

yes i will try the viniger thing thanks. the radiator washed outside in a shop and the man said that it was preety clean with no scale inside. refering the temp of max in the "old times" in open roads the temp point on the middle of the white zone. now it raising 2or 3 mm below the red...

i ment to wash the spaces with some chimical or water to see if there is some blocking that cause the overheating. (its getting hot in normal ride not in the city). i change the coolant clean the radiator and take out the thermo just for test and nothing. the rad drain valve was blocking...

i got a 99 max with an overheating problem a few of you recomended to wash the coolant engine space what is the best way to wash it and what is the Procedure for that? (sorry for the bad english "made in israel")
