When I drove down to Phoenix last summer, my truck was overheating only when I was idling, sitting still. I threw my raditor cap in the garbage, then I changed my water pump, then finally I got the heavy duty radiator, (I found the longer brackets and a cracked shroud in a junkyard), and after all that, it STILL overheated. For the hell of it, I got a new radiator cap when I was in Autozone one day. Problem solved. My dad always told me to check the cheapest and simplest things first. He will never hear this story.
