Car overheated got that fixed and now it doesnt eccelerate do you know if theirs something to reset or what the problem may be?
When you say got it fixed. What did you get done.
When a car overheats. Sometimes it is possible that the head gasket can craic. if it is overheating for to long it can go as far as to warp the head. This will give you a severe loss in power. Take off your oil cap. If there is a white pastelike substance on the bottom of the oil cap, chances are your head gasket has gone. Another tell tale sign is the water that feeds the radiator will be really brown and dirty looking.
If this has happened you will have to take it to a mechanic. Engine has to be completely stripped. New head gasket and the engine block will have to be skimmed if warped. Not a easy repair. Hope this helps you.
