Hi,

Before you go to the big things, have you bled the system properly after the install? This could cause over heating and can be checked if the return hose on the radiator is cold and other is hot.

Overheating could also be because of a head gasket so please have that pressure tested also.

Happy Motoring

How to replace a fog light bulb on a 2004 Toyota Camry

Video Description
The video above shows how to change the fog light bulb in your 2004 Toyota Camry. Not all models have fog lights - for many Toyotas, it depends on your trim level (XLE) or whether the fog light option was ordered when your Camry was manufactured. Fog lights are typically in the front bumper, below the headlight cluster and are helpful in poor visibility. If one fog light is burnt out on your Camry, we recommend changing both bulbs because the working bulb will be dimmer than the one you replaced and will likely burn out soon anyway.

When you change the foglight on your Camry, be careful not touch the glass part of the bulb with your fingers which causes the bulb to burn out earlier.

I have a 1994 Toyota Camry XLE 4 cylinder. its been having problems overheating so I was just putting antifreeze and water in it for about a month. I replaced the coolant sensor and the thermostat, still...

Sounds like a leaking head gasket. The head gasket can allow coolant to leak into the cylinders, and compression to leak into the cooling system.

Need to know how hard is it to take water pump off, need break down diagram.

Need to know which model sedan you have, CE, LE, XLE, and which motor you have 2.2 4 cyl or 3.0 V6, also email address to send diagram/instructions to replace your water pump, no they are pretty easy to replace.

The water on my car keeps heating up alot and it goes into the engine coolant resevoir leaving the rediator dry

You need to replace the radiator pressure cap. I would also replace thermostat, drain and flush radiator to start. If it continues the water pump may be not pumping water. If the thermostat is stuck closed it wont allow water to cycle through the engine causing it to boil and the pressure cap is not holding the pressure allowing it to flow to the reservoir. So first change the thermostat and the radiator pressure cap.

EXHAUST LEAK INTO COOLING SYSTEM?

Sounds like you have a partially plugged radiator. Try flushing it out and see if the problem changes at all. When flushing, force water to flow backwards from the normal flow direction this usually frees up some of the debris built up on the core passage ends. If you must, remove the radiator to do this. Depending on accessability, I usually just tape up the end of a garden hose and put it into the outlet on the radiator (but have gotten as radical as using a pool pump and lime out to do this job!
Is there any coolant in the engine oil or trans?

Had a similar problem with my camry wagon, was going through thermostats every 6 months... dunno why. Best way to figure it out is just to buy a new thermostat and replace that first. It's really easy to do, and a new thermo will only run ya about 20 bucks.

best of luck.
