Overheating problem! Need help asap! Ok ever since I got my procharger put on with my fmic my car just randomly gets hot as hell and then it goes away. I checked coolant, use purple ice, have a new ati fan, and I just put my thermostat in boiling water and it opened up. It's only been in the 40's too. What's going on and what should I do?

make for some insane PCM spark and fuel behavior. Might want
to clean, see if you can tighten up the spring-clip.
