Re: 2001 GP Overheating

Was the air purged from the system when the thermostat was changed? If the cat converter is partially plugged, that might be causing heat from the exhaust to affect the temps. If you have an infared thermometer, point it at the therm. housing for a pretty reliable temperature reading. It could also be a collapsing raditator hose, but not likely.
The temperature on mine was up around 210 all the time right before I had to replace the intake gaskets.
