When driving my Chevy Impala it gets sluggish overheating what is the problem?
the simple answer is the coolant fluid - make sure it's full where it's marked, after driving it ten miles. the bigger problem is unlikely if it runs alright, so try the first. you might just need to flush and fill the coolant too..
There is a fat hose that runs around the air filter on a 97 Chevy lumina that had liquid all over it and caused a big smoke under the hood while you were driving What do you think would be the problem?
SOunds like a radiator hose and that liquid is coolant and the stink is the coolant hitting the exhaust manifold

Oil or trans fluid is getting in the coolant system. Have it checked out now. You can ruin lots of things by driving it.
How do you treat a 2000 ford contour when it runs hot?
You stop driving it and repair the problem that is causing it to run hot. A complete cooling system service is in order. Drain the coolant, replace the thermostat, replace the coolant, check the function of the water pump, the thermal switch for the cooling fans and the cooling fans themselves. Clean the exterior of the radiator and flush the radiator.

If coolant full could be a bad sensor
After about 5 to 10 minutes of driving your car starts to run hot why 1998 cavalier?
When the car reaches normal operating temperature, open the hood and see if the radiator fan is running or starts to run before the engine runs hot. If the fan doesn't come on, the problem is either a bad relay or fan motor. If the fan comes on but engine still runs hot, problem may be thermostat stuck in closed position, faulty water pump, low/no coolant, or clogged radiator.
Why would I still be getting oil in my coolant when radiator and head gasket have been repaired and car runs well and does not smoke?
Not sure how long ago you've been driving after this service was performed but my best guess would be that its what is left over from what was in there. If it doesnt stop or actually I recommend you go see the service center you had the service performed at and have them look into the problem again. They should be responsible for all costs if they have had a problem with the parts they replaced

coolant temperature sensor are located where the coolant runs in the block near the thermostat housing normally the connector are on top of the sensor and the sensor itself screws in with a deep socket.
