over heating problem

RE: over heating problem
Try filling up the radiator 1/2 way. Start it. let it warm up to about the 2nd line on the stock gauge. This is around 180 (on my 88 it is) watch the coolant level, it should rise and maybe even spill over until the thermostat opens, then the level will drop quickly. Leave it running and add more coolant until it is about 2" down in the radiator. watch the temp gauge, it shouldn't rise above the 3rd line before the thermostat opens again. Do you see the coolant flow in the radiator? If not, redo the thermostat.
