Engine Cooling problem
1993 Chrysler Le Baron 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive 100000 miles

I just bought a 1993 lebaron, convertable, in great shape. however, it overheats when i get to 65mph....no issues when staying below 60. are these 2 core radiators, and if so, is there a 3 core that could be a direct replacement?

make sure thermostat is opening properly and that no air is in cooling system. also ensure radiator fan(s) come on properly. the OEM radiator is a 1 row , 22 1/4" x 14 7/8" x 1"

check if the cover from your cooler is leaky or not, then check, if the cooler fan relais is working (and if the cooler is going on or not), if not, replace either the relais or the fan. does our LeBaron overheat all the time or only when you drove a while and want to switch it off, then it could also be a leaky water pump....?
