hiya,
have a 89 k10. running brilliantly since i bought it. neway changed the thermostat today and then went on a 10 mile motorway journey. about 7 miles in felt a little loss of power but went ok after about a minute. wen i got off the motoway i could definately feel loss of power in low revs and it felt like the car was stuttering. so i pulled over at a petrol station and opened bonnet and steam issuing from around therostat and water everywhere. so opened cap, topped up coolant and tried to start it. started but could still feel the stuttering. tried to drive of but the car stalled. after that it hasnt started. also, the car never overheated one bit and no smell of burning etc. just steam issuing from spilt water i think.
does anyone know what might have happened?
thanks
