Ok I've replaced the thermostat and flushed the radiator even put water wetter in it. The radiator fan is kicking on but not the a/c fan. I'm riding down the road and all of a sudden the car just wants to overheat it fluxiates up and down and starts to go up. So I kill it and pull off. The car has done this a cpl times before but it's been about 2-3 weeks since it did it last and I am dumb founded why its so spiratic. It's not puffing white smoke either.

 

Everything seemed ok during the flush? Didn't seem to be a clog anywhere...?

Water pump maybe?

 

water pump or head gasket are really the only things left to check.

 

unless you guage is being gay, mine does that sometimes and i get out pop my hood and fell my hoses and they are soft, if you car is over heating usually the upper hose it stiff as ****

could be your gauge. or a sensor. just a thought

 

No I didn't see any clogs it was all water though. If it was the water pump though wouldn't it be constant and making noise?

If its the head gasket I'd have oil mixing and white smoke correct? (i have neither of these symptoms)

 

If it was the headgasket you'd be blowing puffs of white smoke and the coolant would have oil in it..Plus you can smell it..Maybe waterpump or messed up gauge??

 

When you say the AC condensor fan doesn't work, does that mean your using the AC, but the fan doesn't come on?

If that's the case, it's totaly normal that your overheating. The AC condensor becomes hot when you turn on the AC system, and it sits directly in front of the radiator. This means the condensor is heating up the radiator. If you don't have the secondary fan operating, then your temp is going to go up. My car is currently suffering from this problem when sitting in traffic. Once I turn the AC off and start moving again, it drops back down. I have a replacment fan motor waiting to go in, and that will cure the problem...

 

sounds like you have a bubble in your line, my car does this whenever there is one. try bleeding it using the bleeder by the upper radiator hose.
