During the drive to the show last weekend 90 miles each way the car ran hot. I can not figure out why.
1 timing is correct
2 thermostat is in the right way
3 new cored raditor (no problems before)
4 water pump spins
5 new head gasket (upside down??)
6 plenty of anti-freeze mix
7 12" puller fan
At freeway speeds the temp stays at about 210 but any up hill it climbes up to 230
At idle it will stay at about 190.
I am going to take off the top hose and the t-stat and run water thru to see if there is some blokage, (maybe a critter crawled in while the raditor was sitting for three months)
Any other ideas will help
