I rebuilt the top end of the engine about 7 months ago. At the time I replaced the water pump, fluid and t-stat. I checked the fluid level tonight when the car cooled off and it was full. The car was running at normal until the a/c was turned on. with-in two minute the car was red lining. My guess is the raditor. Is this where I should be looking for the problem?
