4 possibilities in order of what to try first, second, etc:

1 - Make sure air is flowing over radiator (Fan is turning, front of radiator/ac condensor clear). Make sure you have enough coolant in radiator and overflow tank. Free.

2 - Thermostat not opening. Get new one. $6 at AutoZone. About an hour job. Get new coolant at same time. Need about a gallon of full strength and mix it 50/50.

3 - Radiator clogged. Get new one off Ebay. $130. About 2 hour job. same thing with coolant as number 2

4 - Water pump not turning fast enough or engine coolant passageways not clear. This is not the option you want to experience. If you are asking this question then go to a mechanic for this one.

It is probably number 2 - Thermostat. That's what mine was. You will want to make sure you get a gasket with it as well as silicone thermostat gasket sealer. Another 3 or 4 dollars. Not a difficult job at all.

Good luck
