Default Overheating problems please help
It was over heating so I changed the thermostat and flushed the system. Now I can sit an idle in my driveway for a hour with the a/c on no problem. But when I go down the road it overheats again. Please help.

Grab a thermal thermometer and check temps of the radiator at both the bottom & top. If there is a big difference, then you may have a blockage in the radiator.
