1994 Capri weird overheating only under heavy load (not in traffic)

<< < (2/2)

I agree.  I let it run in the driveway the other night with the air on while I worked on the interior and it never went over half.  So it must be a circulation problem.

I drove it this weekend and sure enough, it began running too hot on the interstate but did fine in stop and go traffic (in 87 degree heat).  So I'm sure it's a circulation problem.  I'll flush everything as I said and install a new thermostat (and probably a new fan switch while I'm at it just in case the one on the car now is a little lazy).  Hopefully this will fix it!

Rocketman:
It does indeed sound like a circulation problem.
