Hey all, my truck recently started overheating at really random intervals. It did not seem to matter weather the ac was on or if I was moving, etc.. So I changed the thermostat. While I was waiting on a new one, I ran with out a thermostat and had no problems. Now, a few weeks after the new thermostat, it is doing it again. It will overheat, cool off, and overheat again. I went trail riding this weekend and had no problems, but on the interstate it ran really hot. Any suggestions?
Thanks

I have had a lot of Rovers come through my shop with clogged or restricted radiators. Often, there is a lot of debris trapped between the radiator and the condensor for the ac. I would recommend taking the radiator to alocal radiator shop, having them rod it and pressure test it. It is often a more economical than replacing the radiator. My radiator guy also fits new , larger cores to improve heat transfer. Its worth looking in front of the radiator and inside the air bleed before assuming worse things, ie; head gaskets..
