Engine Performance problem
1998 Chevy Lumina 6 cyl Automatic 188000 miles
Recently, I have had the spark plugs changed (wires included). After that the water pump and thermostat were changed because of a leakage. Now my car runs hot. There are no visible leaks. I was told that the thermostat may not be opening up fully, or there is water in the oil. While driving it seems as though water is squirting, or at least it feels that way under the gas pedal. Do you think it could be a problem with the radiator, or possibly the head gasket?
