So let me get this straight. Of the billions of videos that are on the interwebz... The fact is that "it" didn't work.

Is that about right?

So been driving the car here lately on the cooler nights, now I'm noticing that the car is running hot. I believe I have a radiator that is too small of a capacity. It does this when I'm driving at highway speeds it starts to get above 200. I ordered a new 3 row radiator to hope this will fix the issue.

Do you have an air dam installed? Could be a cheap fix.

Lots of people have had overheating issues at highway speed that was cured by replacing the air dam. There is a guy on corral who makes a nice piece from sheet metal that lots of people swear by. It's cheap and couldn't hurt.

You can make one yourself out of sheet metal for less than $20 I'd bet.

Is it only at night? I had a bad ground that would spike my temp gauge with the lights on.
