Thermostat is stuck or water pump is bad or radiator is clogged. Start with the thermostat because it is the most likely and the cheapest to repair. Good luck

How does coolant circulate in the cooling system?
Generally thru the use of a belt driven centrifugal pump
Why does a coolant have to travel through sealed pipes?
A few of the reasons: 1. So that the coolant does not leak out of the system. 2. So that the coolant can be made to circulate through the pipes (pressure is required). 3. So that Pressure can build up in the cooling system. This allows the coolant to reach a higher temperature before boiling. Once at its boiling point, the temperature will not rise, and additional cooling is inhibited.
Is your engine coolant supposed to move once the engine is on?
The coolant should circulate through the entire water system.
What is the purpose of the pump?
The Automotive Water Pump In general the main purpose of the automotive water pump is to circulate the coolant of the cooling system of a water-cooled engine.
Why will water not circulate through cooling system on vehicle?
You might have a blockage somewhere, or you might need to replace the thermostat.
Where is the coolant going in your 1988 ford ranger?
it goes into your radiator, and then through your cooling system
What is the problem when your car keeps running hot and you change the thermostat and coolant?
Pressure test the cooling system, or a leak down test to determine if its a blown head gasket. Combustion gases can leak into the cooling system via a blown headgasket, causing air bubbles, not allowing the coolant to circulate and causing an overheating engine.
What are the causes of high pressure in RX7 cooling system The system loses coolant through the coolant bottle afte the radiator cap releases coolant.?
faulty pressure cap or center housing has rusted through to the outer seal ...
What are the causes of high pressure in Toyota Hilux SR5 2003 cooling system The system loses coolant through the coolant bottle afte the radiator cap releases coolant?
Sounds like you may have a bad head gasket.It will leak exhaust into the cooling system and create alot of pressure
What will happen if the car themostat does not open?
Coolant doesn't go through the cooling system, and the vehicle will overheat.
How does the cooling sistem of a 1999 Oldsmobile alero works?
The coolant pump draws coolant from the radiator and circulates the coolant through coolant jackets in the engine cylinder block and the cylinder heads. The coolant is then directed back to the radiator. The system directs some coolant through hoses to the heater core in order to provide for defrost and passenger compartment heat. A surge tank connects to the cooling system. Pressurized coolant continuously flows through the surge tank and the process repeats
What are the operations of cooling system?
The cooling system in your car (radiator) cycles fluid (water with anifreeze/coolant) through your engine to keep it from overheating. It carries heat away from the engine.
