Overheating after 2mi
Hi,
I hope someone here can help me. My Explorer overheats after about 2 to 3 miles, on streets or highway. If I slow down the gauge immediately goes back to normal. Also once it does this initial spike, it doesn't happen again unless stressed. (mountains) I have checked all fluids. I am stumped! and so is the mechanic. HELP! Muriel P.S.No visible leaks |

Re: Overheating after 2mi
My thoughts go toward the thermostat.....sticking, late to open, once it's open all is OK.

Re: Overheating after 2mi
i agree SRERCRCR it sounds like the thermostat but my sister has a blazer and it did the same thing replace thermostat no go, replaced water pump and has work ever since. so if it is not the thermostat i suggest trying the water pump
