Happy Valentines Day!
I'm so glad it was a simple fix and you didn't burn up your engine.Car repaired.....had shut down on way home from work. Had it towed home next morning. I felt it had to do with heater -- which had stopped heating 2 wks prior.
Soooo...today DS checked it out. Yes, heater issue resolved also. The hose going to it had split, liquids draining. Because it started when frigid, hadn't been driving it, used my truck. But, did drive that one day...about 10 miles to store. On way home, just after turning heater on, it stopped. No overheating, just cut off.
Turned out fine. Replaced hose, added water & more antifreeze and we're back to everything working!. Could have been a disaster had I not stopped using it. It started right up, so you'd "think" ok, knew it wasn't. It's been sitting in yard since tow.
Lucky me. Warmed up, good repair day, easy fix.
