I've got the 7 blade fan. I replenished the coolant and replaced the radiator cap today. It is still wanting to run hot, but I don't let it get there. How can I tell what part or parts are bad? It ran fine with the current radiator until a couple of days ago, so I don't think that's the problem.

How do you tell if the water pump is bad?

What about the thermostat?
