> What do you mean by "won't start moving" ? Did the engine stall from
overheating?
I stepped on the gas, but the car wouldn't go. So I pulled over on
the shoulder, I turned off the ignition, started the car again. It
seemed to be fine and started going, but that's when I noticed the
thermostat was all the way up. So I got off the freeway and turned
off the engine.
About 2 months ago, my car had rough idle for about a day, then the
next morning the car wouldn't start. I called AAA to have it towed to
a shop, and the person who came with a tow truck was able to start the
car by stepping on the gas pedal while turning on the ignition (after
few minutes of struggling). When I brought my car to a shop, this
mechanic didn't see any problems clearly, but replaced the radiator
anyway, because the coolant level was noticeably low. This is a
mechanic who has gotten lots of good reviews online, and I'm plannning
on taking my car back to him. The mechanic who's been working (or
checking) on my car this time is another mechanic. Do you think I
should take the car back to the guy who replaced the radiator, or
should I try to find another shop? Lastly, what do you mean by "Be
sure to do***ent everything?"
Anyhow, thanks very much for your time. I appreciate the long & very
helpful response.
