In winter I have no problems, car runs great. In summer on hot days it overheats. I changed the thermostat, coolant sensor still overheating. I live on a dirt road. If I run the heater it doesn't stall out as much. I pull over it cools off pretty quick while parked. The temp gauge never goes past half so I am sure it is bad. Is there anything else I can do?
Thank you, Cheryl

Check to see if your fan is coming it may be the radiator fan switch bad or poor connection or a relay bad.
