Radiator smoking/steaming
I just purchased a 96 turbo. I got the battery issue taken care of now I have a new one. Once the car gets warm it basically immediately jumps to too hot. Shortly after it starts smoking/steaming from the radiator area. I was testing it in my driveway but it was dark out and I didn't have a lot of lights so it was hard to tell exactly where it was coming from, plus a lot was going into my face so it was hard to see. The radiator was still cool to the touch even though it was steaming.
I took it for a ride today. The temp goes up to red then down to the middle area back and forth. The smoking is somewhat constant. Not sure if this makes a difference but it always comes out of the right (passenger) side. I just bought this car so I'd rather not have to buy a new radiator. The over flow tank is full.
