    engine running hot

    My engine has started running between the halfway and 3/4s mark on the temp gauge. It used to be planted on the 1/4 mark after it got warmed up. Any ideas what tit could be?

    I don't know which tit would solve the problem ;). But usually if a car runs hot, usually the thermostat is stuck or there isn't proper circulation in the water pump or radiator. The way I figure, thermostats are cheap and easy to replace so that's the first thing I'd check.

      change the thermostat and bleed the system. if that doesnt work, maybe your fan clutch is going bad
