My car keeps running hot. Changed the thermostat on it twice, the second time it ran fine for about a week and a half, then started again. Everything else seems to be fine. I read about a lot of people that had the same problem, but it seems that no one found a answer to fix it.

Pressure check the coolant system for internal leaks like a head gasket if none found then get the chemical at auto parts that can check as well to rule that out. Then when engine is hot and not running disconnect cooling fan power so they will not turn on then place hand on several spots on radiator if any spots are cool radiator is bad as it should be about same temperature all over.
