Hot engine

Good morning,

I would start by changing the thermostat. If it is not opening all th way, it will cause the engine to heat up.

Are the cooling fans coming on when the engine is stopped or idling?

I attached a wiring diagram for the fans in case there is an issue. We can do some checks if they are not working.

I have changed the thermostat and also the water pump, flushed the radiator and still does it when it’s very hot outside and when the air is running. The fans was checked and they checked out good.

Okay, I would make sure the radiator is not full of dirt in the external fins. If they are, not enough air will come through for cooling the engine.

Did it ever overheat?

It does not get to the danger mark but it gets hot. I already had the radiator flushed.

It sometimes gets a little higher then this:

A standard flush is not good enough. You need someone with a machine that can do an acid flush that will dissolve the dirt and debris in the cores.

Also, the external fins need to checked as I stated in my previous response.

I had a radiator shop do it and he told me he got a lot of junk out of it, but that didn’t fix the issue.

Then there may be more inside that did not get removed.

I would suggest replacing the radiator with a new one.
