the saga continues. drove my car to work today (45 min drive)without the ac on and no problems, gave it to the mechanic and he drove it around with the ac on and he said no problems and dont think head gasket is bad cause car runs strong, he said maby there was a bubble in the rad and now it good so i drove it home wiht ac on and after about 50 minutes it started heatin up again. now he thinks its the water pump cause there was a lot of corrosion in it when he fixed the housing..

sorry for all the qustions but if its the water pump wouldnt it leak and how can you test a water pump. im not paying for any more guesses.

thanks
