[QUOTE="vaffanculo, post: 464382, member: 25989"] Definitely check too make sure the fans are working ..another quick tip when you see it begin too overheat and your on the road put your heat on full blast had to do this once in the summer time and I was roasting for a 90 mile ride home from wildwood n.j. but I made it without the temperature going into the red..also feel both radiator hoses top and bottom make sure they are both getting hot if not it's an indication the thermostat is stuck closed or like the other guy said an air bubble in the system get a plastic water bottle cut it in half and put it in the hole where the radiator cap was this will allow you to see the bubbles coming up from the radiator and prevent a lose of antifreeze when it starts spewing out also put the heat on high be sure to have the front end higher then the rear wheels so the air bubbles come out ..this may take abot 20 to 30 minutes..I usually put the front wheels on a curb ..good luck brother [/QUOTE]
