It started running hot. Replaced water pump, thermostat, radiator cap, clutch fan now they found a pin hole in radiator. The water is not circulating and still running hot.

If there is a hole in radiator that has to be fixed because you wont build pressure in system. After it is fixed if still running hot have system pressure checked for leaks like a head gasket. Also, it may need to be bled to get air out of system why you cannot see it moving.

See picture for instructions. It is pretty easy, also check radiator cap to make sure it is good.

Thanks! I have a 1997 Ford Truck. It has a 4.6 when it starts to change gears it loses power, cuts out. I took the gas tank off and cleaned it. It was filthy!
