I have a 1997 Ford E250 van, 4.2, V6 that is overheating. What is the cause and what parts would need to be replaced? Thank you,

What does the temp gage show in degrees F. Where applicable, if it gets too hot, it will pop the cap and the reservoir will fill up in a hurry. Does the radiator fan work? What about your thermostat? Is there circulation through the radiator?

Thank you for your reply...think we got it resolved. Looks like it is the fan clutch.

I don't do much. I just talk to them till THEY figure it out. Nason figured it out, I didn't. Have a good day.
