Assuming that the radiator and hoses are not leaking and coolant at proper level. Radiator cap worn and not maintaining coolant system pressure causing the boiling point to rapidly drop, or failing water pump. Possibly very old oil causing issue, or oil pump intermittently not working.

How can you tell if a fuse or thermostat or water pump needs to be replaced on a 1995 Mercury Tracer when the warning comes on when it is started and the engine overheated with water in the radiator?
Check engine. Is radiator really full? Does the rad. fan come on? Is the fan belt on water pump tight? If these things are ok, you probably need a new thermostat.

Radiator crack car overheating replaced radiator ran car for a week then the car overheated again should I replace the water pump what should I do?
I would suspect the thermostat is the culprit. Replace the thermostat. definately replace the thermostat, get a new gasket and all. Also, start the car cold and see if the inlet hose to the radiator warms up evenly. if it gets really hot on the engine side of the hose and is still cool by the radiator that means that there is no flow and either the thermo is installed wrong or something is clogged
Where is the Thermostat located on a 1994 Saturn sc?
The lower radiator hose goes from the bottom of the radiator to the engine block. On the engine side there will be a neck that comes off the block and the radiator hose is attached too it. Inside that neck is the thermostat and it can be replaced as a whole unit (the housing neck) or just the thermostat can be removed and replaced.

Why is your 1990 Honda Civic hatchback overheating?
My 1990 Honda Civic Hatchback had a similar problem where it overheated on a seemingly random basis. I first replaced the thermostat, but that did not fix the problem. Then I replaced the water pump, again with no positive result. Finally, I replaced the radiator, which fixed the problem. As it turned out, the radiator had pinhole leaks that caused the problem. Also, when it comes to a leaking radiator, I do not suggest the 'quick fix' of additives to the radiator water that plug holes and stop leaks. These additives can cause more problems than they resolve. The best solution is to replace the radiator.
You replaced the thermostat in your 2001 Chevy venture but the van is still overheating the top radiator hose is hard and hot to the touch like the thermostat is not opening up please advise?
The top radiator hose is above the thermostat. If the top radiator hose is hot, the thermostat is opening. The thermostat is not the problem. Perhaps the radiator is clogged up or the water pump is bad. Look elsewhere.
