I'm having a problem with my Rocco. It's Overheating. I was wondering 
if some one can give me any ideas. I just bought it last Wednesday. 
She was overheating and fluid came from the reserve. My cousin (Owner 
of a 87 16V) and I started diagnosing it. We noticed that the fan 
wasn't comming on so we tested it. Works good. We thought it was the 
thermo switch. Changed it with a new one. Fan Still didn't come on. 
We them noticed that the side of the rad with the thermo swithch on 
it was cold. Thats why the fan didnt come one.We then changed the 
thermostat(dealer) thinking it was closed and not circulating. 
Started it same problem. Thought the rad was cloged. Took the rad out 
flushed it. No problem circulates fine. Also flushed the engine water 
circulates. Monday we are going to change the water pump. Does anyone 
know what the problem might be? Im sorry about the long note but I 
wanted to let you guys know what we've don so far.

   THANX CHRIS
