Bad thermostat. It's usually a 5 dollar part but about 200 bucks in labor, unless you can do it yourself.
a bad termastat
There are several possible causes. 1. Check the fan. When the car is overheating, if the fan is spinning slow that means the clutch is defective. 2. When overheating, touch the upper and lower radiator hose. If upper is cool, replace the thermostat. 3. when overheating, upper hose is hot but lower isn't. That means the radiator is clogged. 4. upper and lower hose are both cool, water pump is defective.
One of the major causes of a car overheating is a leak in the cooling system. Other causes are a clogged radiator, a bad thermostat, a broken or split hose, a worn out water pump, and a faulty cooling fan.
IF IT WAS NOT OVERHEATING BEFORE THE HOSE WAS REPLACED -- MORE THAN LIKELY YOU HAVE AIR POCKETS TRAPPED IN YOUR COOLING SYSTEM
Check the transmission cooler, located in front of the radiator. Flush the coils with a hose to insure that air can flow to cool it.
The most common cause of overheating is a thermostat stuck in the closed position. However, other causes are: faulty water pump, clogged radiator, clogged hose(s), coolant leak or a broken drive belt. I had a 1987 legend with around 160K that was overheating. Antifreeze would boil out of the overflow. I changed my radiator and it fixed the problem.
you mean like overheating? could be a number of problems, radiator leak, radiator broke, radiator fan, leaky hose, broken water pump, broken head or head gasket, or the car running to lean.
If your truck is overheating!!! Then check the upper radiator and lower radiator hose's , if the lower is cooler the the upper the either the thermostat is not opening or the radiator is clogged

it could be the thermostat or it could have a leak in theradiator's hose or radiator
Spilling water from where? Then it has a leak or is overheating. Find the location of the leak.Mine needed a hose clamp on the overflow hose at the radiator,
Remove the Radiator and have it serviced if they are able to. If not you will need to replace it, would be a good time to replace the Radiator hose's as well. Hope This Helps.
