95 3.8L overheating...again
Hey guys. Sorry for the long post in advance but I have a problem with the sixer.
She's been overheating today off and on. I can't seem to find out why, over the past 10 months or so she's done this like 4 times now. Back in 05, we had the heads/gaskets done cuz of the left head warp and subsequent gasket failure. After that, the water pump went out. WELL, the past 10 months have been very aggravating. We've replaced the radiator cap, overflow tank, put TWO things of radiator stop leak in after TWO flushes of the coolant system. She started to overheat today, with no apparent reason why. The water level has been steady since the replacement of the radiator stop leak a couple months back, and now the symptoms are back, overheating and no apparent leak. Can someone help me? I am at a total loss, this is very aggravating.

hoses are good, replaced them not too long ago. Replaced the thermostat, radiator cap. Next up is the overflow tank, the cap is not staying on right. Dunno if thats it or not i doubt it.
