I have a 2000 chevy malibu. it blew out a hose and started overheating on two occasions. which we replaced. then it started overheating again and we replaced the thermastat and the fan relay. that worked for a little while. but then we went on a long drive and it got extremely and blew out the radiator. we replaced that today and tried driving and it still gets hot, but just a little bit. but if i turn on my a/c the temp goes down. what can this be??
