Check your thermostat. Did it work and suddenly stop? What is the engine temp? Your thermostat could be stuck open, or missing, either of which wouldn't allow the engine not to reach proper operating temp. Stick a thermometer in the top of radiator, or your finger, see if it's too hot to touch. If no thermostate, it won't get too hot.
 The sludge in radiator wouldn't cause the proble, neither would the cap. Pull hose off the heater radiator to check circulation.
If the water is circulating and not hot, then the water isn't hot. Worst and last possibility,.... blown head gasket.. , but lets eleminate the little things first...

#14 of 20 1987 S15 electrial by jettmech

I have a 1987 S15 and the Oil pressure shows 0 and the water temp pegs out at 260 and the Amp gauge show 0! My question is will replacing the instrument cluster fix this since all three are reading bad? I know the oil pressure is good because it doesn't knock and it's not blowing steam so the water temp is ok. Also the dash pad is cracked how hard is it to replace?

#17 of 20 mystery vibration by dbanka

Jul 02, 2010 (6:46 pm)

I have a 98 S-10 2.2 5-spd that has a vibration that I cannot fathom. It is an Rpm based vibration that you feel mostly in the gas pedal that gets worse as the engine revs higher. I have replaced a motor mount, put on a new exhaust manifold gasket on,
truck has new u-joints new drive shaft carrier bearing, new tires even though that has nothing to do with rpms... other than that truck runs great. No engine lights nothing. Even swapped the whole drive shaft from a 99 I have that has no vibration and it still vibrates. Now here is the catch. I took the back part of the drives shaft out and ran it up to 80 mph on a lift ... smooth as butter. but you can have the truck in neutral and it still vibrates when you rev it. Explain this one. Please.

start the engine and look at the pully on the front of the crank shaft see how much it is bouncing.if it is doing to much bouncing it is the balancer

 Answer:
On a 2000 model year, 2WD w/ 4.3 L motor the actual pump sits down below the front bumper, on the truck's right side and behind (i.e. above) a splash guard that runs the width of the underneath. The splash guard is horizontal w/ the ground and has 4 bolts that are easy to remove. A couple of small hoses and electrical connectors attach to the pump, which is maybe 4 inches across and dark colored (black plastic cap on one end).
