I HAVE REPLACED WATER PUMP, THERMOSTAT, RADIATOR, FAN CLUTCH, AND STILL MY TRUCK WILL OVERHEAT. WE LIVE IN FLORIDA SO IT GETS VERY HOT, SO THIS IS DEFINITELY A PROBLEM. I THOUGHT MAYBE IT'S A HEAD GASKET, BUT THERE IS NO WATER IN THE OIL.I'M OUT OF IDEAS AND ALMOST OUT OF MONEY, ANY HELP

See my profile,

How quick does it overheat?

Are you losing Coolant?---Amounts/Time/Miles?

Thermostat---Pointy side up, Spring in engine?

Does Lower Radiator hose have a Spring in it [squeeze slightly to see], to keep it from collapsing, from waterpump suction?

Respond?

Love, Turddog
