I picked up a 98 Disco real cheap....everything in good condition but after 10-15 mins is overheats (knew it before I bought it) to the point that it's boiling in the overflow tank along with the upper radiator hose.

Things done:
Thermostat
Water Pump
Hoses
Flushed Radiator

This is my first LR and I love it even though its not running right.
HELP PLEASE

 

Have you bled the air from the system, have you tested the clutch on your fan, how about the electrical fans, are they both working?

 

Don't let it get in the red or you'll blow your heads!

 

I bled the air from the system after flushing, I also noticed that one of the electrical fans would turn for a short while but the other one....not at all. There is some resistance in the cluch fan, however it's had alot of grim around the front. Not sure if that would keep it from detecting the temp change.

 

If your radiator is pluged then all the other crap isnt going to help you! Sorry but your overheating sounds severe. If you run out of options pull out the radiator and check for rot or leaks if its leaking get a new one and you will be real happy you did.

 

DI's are known for having clogged radiators from lack of maintenance to the cooling system.

 

Yep. Had to replace mine around 5k ago. Make sure you don't have leaves or other rubbish blocking the front of it.

 

Started removing some of the front end, was looking at the E-Fans, and could see a small section of the radiator.....which has crap in it. Also, could see that some of the veins where either missing or damaged.
So, if it comes down to it....any thoughts on where to get a radiator that won't cost me my first born. Looks like the E-Fans are not working right...thoughts on testing.

 

Look at replacing both the electric fans as well as your fan clutch, they all need to be working at 100% to keep that engine cool.

 

The old radiator is worth $35 bucks or so for scrap copper/brass.The front is blocked by the aircon condenser so you really cant see unless you take it out. The fins on mine were all like tissue paper. I would order a new one from Euro parts direct it is the cheapest but I dont know the quality if you get it let us know.
