Maybe a little more information. Why do you think it is over heating? Is the radiator fan running? Does it do it when in traffic? on the road? idling??? When was the coolant last changed? Is it loosing any coolant? Is there any oil like stuff in the coolant? Is the radiator air flow clear?

INFORMATION PLEASE 🙂
