It is overheating because either; 1. Radiator coolant is low-check and add if necessary-make sure a leaking water pump is not the cause 2. The thermostat is stuck closed and needs replaced 3. The radiator is bad-the tubes are clogged (remove the cap and visually inspect the inside of the radiator) and, or the cooling fins between the tubes are loose and falling off (run your fingers over them to check)-replace with a new one or have that one recored.

How do you fix overheating on a dodge Ram 250 van?
I'm not a mechanic but, I had to replace my radiator to fix the overheating problem on my 1994. That was the last thing I replaced after replacing the water pump, thermostat, and replaced my fan with a clutch fan. have not had anymore problems with it overheating once the radiator was replaced. Flush the coolant first then replace the radiator. Hope this helps.
