Want this question answered?
Try the rad. fan or the rad. fan relay
A bad thermostat can cause an overheat. A bad temp sensor can show an overheat when the temperature is normal.
it is possible your radiator is clogged
Air bubbles still trapped in the system
fan or thermostat not working
Head Gasket to replace
Thermostat mulfunctioning, leaking coolant fluid or even over driving the car, good luck.OR shifting wrong,drrrr.
What would cause the instrument panel on a 1997 ford pickup 150 not to work?
check radiator for small leaks or cooling lines which would most definitely cause it 2 steam when running after awhile
Your brake shoes can drag on the drum and overheat. This will cause premature brake pad wear and hurt the cars performance and gas mileage.
Low coolant level, or the cooling fan(s) are not energizing due to a bad fan motor, sensor, or relay- maybe even a broken wire. Engine coolant temperature sensor will cause that everytime... more likely than anything else because it only does it when stuck in traffic or stop sign to stop sign and not on open road.
It would help if you asked a question or described symptoms instead of being so vague that changing the tire might be the correct answer.
