I have a 22ft. tioga rv with a 460 engine. It gets real hot once it's warmed up. I flushed the radiator and replaced the thermostat. The engine lite still comes on and the radiator water is boiling. Thanks, Dennis

Hi Dennis,

If the lower hose is not hot, check the water pump.

Is the radiator fan pulling enough air?
