I have a '90 Subaru Legacy which is continuously overheating. Once I noticed it, I swapped the thermostat for new, bled all coolant out and replaced the radiator cap. The car will idle infinitely without overheating, yet once it is on the road for about five minutes the overheating kicks in. The temperature gauge will remain still and then suddenly spike into the red zone. Another thing that I have noticed is that the heater will blow hot air while idling, yet once the car is beginning to overheat, the heater will blow cool.
