Engine overheating need help finding problem
Heres the problem. My engine coolant temp gauge will start to rise while at speeds above 55 mph. It doesn't matter if the air conditioning is on or not. The temp will rise fast with the a/c on but if i switch the ac to heat,even without the blower motor on, it will cool down to normal but it will start to rise again if I don't slow down. I replaced the thermostat and the fans seem to be working fine. When my car is at a stand still my engine stays cool, its only at speeds above 55mph or rpms above 2500 or so for an extended period of time. Any suggestions?

Did you bleed the system? Is your fan coming on?
