[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 9305, member: 82"] It sounds dead. If you put the thermostat in boiling water it should open up. Its really hard to say what sate the water pump is in as you can't easily check pressure. They have a cast iron impeller that would take a lot to rust out!. I'd change the thermostat and see how it goes. If it still runs warm then start checking the radiator. With the coolant drained it wouldn't hurt to hook up the garden hose to the radiator and give it a bit of a flush. Also, i would remove the inspection covers and check the oil cooler and radiator to see if they are clear. When the get clogged with dirt they don't cool very well. If you are really worried about the water pump, you can remove it and if its ok put it back with red silicone or any instant gasket. That way you know its ok. [/QUOTE]
