Low coolant?

Water pump defective.
Have flushed complete cooling system replaced water pump radiator thermostat clutch fan added 2gal straight anti freeze then filled to capacity with water and truck is still over heating. What else could possibly be wrong
It could be a clogged radiator or cracked head or bad head gasket.
Check the water pump
could be the water pump That is a typical symptom of an air lock in the cooling system
Either the water pump impeller is loose on it's shaft, or you have a leaking head gasket.
Bad thermostat maybe?
If it has electric fans, make sure they are coming on when it get's hot. If not, then check the fuses and relays for them and power to the fans. Might just be a relay for the fans.
1997 DODGE STRATUS HAS A BAD ENGINE BLOCK. 85 % OF THE 1995-1998 STRATUS' HAVE BAD ENGINES. AS A RESULT, THE OTHER PROBLEMS SURFACE.
If your radiator isnt leaking and car is having a over heating problem and coolant spewing out. Chances are your thermostat needs replaced. possible the radiator needs to be flushed. But more likley its thermostat
cooling system needs flushed out and a new thermostat installed, also if the radiator is still original it probably needs replaced or rodded out.
Could be your electric fan on the radiator is shot, or the relay is bad.
