[QUOTE="Lee12609, post: 751840, member: 12415"] thats not overheating. mine sits in the same spot when its 95+ outside and i run the a/c, i've verified the actual temperature is only 210? at that point, which is perfectly fine. this is the reason ford did the radiator/fan upgrade, i'm guessing yours doesnt have it, neither does mine. nothing will help except a more efficient radiator. my car has a 180? thermostat, and low speed fan turns on at 180? high speed fan turns on at 200?, but mine only gets that hot when cruising down the interstate, so the radiator is not capable of removing enough heat at the higher rpms. i dont know if its lack of airflow, or the actual size of the radiator, but either way, its the problem.
