could be an air buble or some of your hoses might be colapsing. Bleed your radiator and change the hoses. Did you clean the radiator?

thanks for responding!yes I just cleaned the cooling system and changed antifreeze,still runnin hot. Then i noticed the heater core was bypassed...would that make it run hot,not going through core?
