Sometimes so-called mechanics that aren't very skilled say the engine needs everything to solve an overheating problem. They are just throwing parts at it, & increasing the customer cost.
Sometimes a bad Fan Clutch causes the engine to overheat. You can get those at the auto wrecking yard fer $20 buckaroos or so.
& then sometimes these mechanics know what they are Diagnosing. It's hard to say in your case, with your problem.
I'll try explain it. «Лютый» is pronounced as Lyuty. The point is that Russian people call the wolf as «Лютый» (fierce) in folk-tales. In addition this name is such expressive and significant that it is used for definition a lot of natural phenomenons and cases in the life. For example, «лютыймороз» (fierce/severe frost), «лютая буря» (fierce/violent storm), “лютаяненависть» (fierce/strong hatred) and so on. As for me so I had been named “Лютый» (Fierce) by my friends several years ago because of my love and respect to polar (chukchee) wolves. And else ... my job is in the field of the environmental protaction and ecology. That’s why I’m Лютый. I hope my English is not so poor.
Hawk, I thought I'd move our conversation about fine gourmet guy dining over here.
I do admit, occasionally Taco Bell hits the spot. Had their Mexican Pizza just last night. Is it a sin to admit we like this kind of food or just make us more "Manly" ? Almost anything you can eat with just your fingers should be considered good guy food.

Don't get me talking about food.
I didn't call myself Chowhound cause I like talking politics.

This is a 13 yr old car, while it has been maintained impeccably, I've got all of the receipts of the work from the previous owner. Heck, its got 50k on it and you'd never know it, the interior looks brand new, I've had people comment on it.
Things fail, its about the age where things like water pumps, timing belts, trannys start to go.
But heck, I got it for a fabulous price.
