Re: Overheating...

Matthew, You have had a lot of good reply's, but you may want to take 
the radiator out and clean out behind the air conditioner grill. It's 
more than likley plugged with bugs and gunk. That's about 1/2 of the 
radiator. If air can flow, it won't cool. You can't clean it good 
without taking it out, fans block the back and air conditioner grill 
blocks the front. Once you do this, then the other things that have 
been mentioned can be evaluated properly. You may won't to have a 
shop check it for water flow also. Otterstat,thermostat, so on.
My temp gauge virtually never goes above the second mark on the road 
and the fans almost never come on except in town or when I turn on 
the air. Naturally I have all my Fixes installed.
