This could be Emmy, but it might be Jon T's car, Saffy

we both added the "sock" on the Cold Air Intake- but it didn't stop the rain from wrecking Mick's car :( Maybe it did help, and that's why he only has bent valve, and not a totaled engine?

replace the thermostat housing and water pump impeller
Harvster writes: If you have not already done so, replace the water pump with an all metal impeller pump and replace the thermostat. Some or most 3 series cars came with a plastic impeller pump that can break loose from the shaft and cause overheating. My 99 2.3 turned out to have a metal impeller pump but when I replaced it after 6 yrs, it was slightly leaking fluid out of the weep hole. The water pump and thermostat replacement is a cheap and easy DIY job if you have any experience and tools. Change the sperpentine belts while you are at it.
