a new motor will run hot you should allways replace the radiator on a rebuild i know it's costly but you want to keep that motor a long time. good luck with your cooling

Do What? I've never heard doing such a thing. If anything you might flush out the Radiator and install a new thermostat. Not to mention the China garbage you buy is not a replacement for the original Radiator. It's pure garbage.

I had the same problem until I learned I was putting too much of the wet stuff in the Radiator. Never fill it up to the neck like you would normally do on your truck. Like the man say's, barely cover the core and your problem will most likely be solved.

You probably ain't overheating. You are probably losing only excess water from overfilling the radiator like Bruce referred to . Do not add more water than just enuf to cover the cores, the rest of the tank is there for expansion, and if you overfill it will blow out the excess.

The most common reason for an N to over heat is over filling the radiator. (check out tip # 23, below as well as tips 25 & 35)

If the radiator is not overfilled, check for low coolant, a loose fan belt, debris in the radiator fins or a stuck thermostat. A bad water pump will usually squeak or leak.

Do not remove the thermostat!
