I had cooling problems too but then again everything else was ALREADY wrong!!! Try the Thermostat, it's cheap and a good start. My Acclaim actually blew the rad out on the way to it's (now!!) final resting place. Biggest piece of GARBAGE I've EVER owned.
Actually a likable little car when it was running right and other than 2 tranny's never actually stranded us, but ALWAYS had SOMETHING wrong with it. I don't miss it, that's for sure.
