I noticed about a week ago that my car (1988 BMW 735i) overheats at an idle, but cools very quickly when I hit the accelorator pedal. I dont have to be moving, but when I use the gas pedal it cools within about 10 seconds. I opened the hood, and noticed that the a/c condensor froze up and that belt was not spinning. Thinking that this was my problem, and that it was just slowing the fan, I cut the belt to the a/c condensor. This did not help. Car still overheats at and idle. Today I went to work, and when I got to the parkinglot my car spewed all the coolant, and my windows fogged up. I am thinking that it is the heater core, but was wondering if I was right for one, but also if the two problems were related, and how to fix the first problem. I do not know why the car over heats, but the fan still spins at idle I have checked this. Thank you for any answers or help with my problem.
