alright i have an 04 cavalier with the ecotec manual if it matters. anyways i just put on the rksport underdrive pulley and then drove like 20+ miles to pick up my bro. while i was waiting for like 10-15 mins the car was running sitting still and started to smoke. Open the hood and the dex-cool is pouring out of it all over the ground so i shut it off. the temp gauge was only like 10 degrees hotter than normal but the s*** was pouring out of it. My thought is that the underdrive pulley is making the water pump spin to slow to keep it cool at idle. Has anyone else experienced or know anything about this?? Just wondering if this is normal or if that is even what the problem is. Thanks for your help

the water pump is chain driven
the only things driven off the crank are the a/c and alt
I don't rmeber 100% for sure but I think I rmeber the water pump being driving off a chain in the timing case, underdrive pully will have no affect on it
Well any ideas on what happened cause it has never done that until i installed the pulley. and yea now that i think about it there were only 3 pullies and the tension pulley. Thanks guys
