[AT] Question OT

[pga2 at hot1.net]

Richard,
Have you checked on a new larger radiator? The original in my F-150 was a one row
unit. Replaced it with a two row and now it almost runs too cool. Another
possibility is the water pump impeller may have eroded and isn't moving enough water
any more. Also, if the system had a lot of buildup, your thermostat may also need
replacing.

My 2¢,
Phil
