Re: Overheating issue

Often the last part replaced is the first one to check. You can test a thermostat by putting in heated water using a thermometer to see what temp range it is opening at. Does everything look clean in there? How about the radiator hoses,what shape are they in? Could be collapsing,then heat expanding? Just a thought. Didn't really think that one through.
