It definitely could.
We had a 'leaker' that would fluctuate between 230 and 250* steadily up and down. Never overheated, just ran hot and fluctuated.
And there was always a steady stream of tiny bubbles in the coolant. Gasoline's ignition/burn temp is 495*, and the temp inside the combustion chamber, with the gases burning under pressure, is around 2800* and can approach 4000* under certain circumstances. So, YES, even a small amount of combustion gas will heat the coolant up really quickly. |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
