You know, I didn’t even think about that — I need to get one of the little tester things from Wal-Mart, I guess.

Have you checked the concentraion of your coolant.?Maybe there is too much water in it. If you dont have the correct amount of antifreeze in it all you have is hot water going through your system.

Could be! I’ve checked the fan though, even when the car is off, and it seems to be spinning at an OK speed — I’m honestly stumped by all of this.

Have you checked your electric Fan?? Maybe when you rev the engine up it speeds up the fan to go faster.??
Just a thought.

No, that was actually my idea too — it’s weird… I don’t know why it’s suddenly needed to be ran through the pipes at a sudden speed to cool stuff down — perhaps there’s a blockage!

I tried to do a coolant flush, but it was just a kind of “normal” one (regular direction) — there’s actually a type of “backflush” that you can do, maybe I need that!
