Engine Cooling problem
1998 Ford Expedition V8 Four Wheel Drive Automatic

Temperature gauge suddenly climbs and oil light comes on. If you turn off the vehicle and turn it on again all gauages read normal. Checked temperature and it is okay, checked oil and is okay. Replaced temperature sensor and there is no change. 02 sensor has been changed, plus spark plugs and radiator fluid. Could there be a bubble in the fluid system, mis-read in the computer system? Can't find solution to this one after all that has been done even after taking it in for diagnostics.
