I have a 99 Plymouth Voyager and it has ran hot on me a few times but when it does I pull over to let it cool down. I do believe i need a radiator and maybe a thermastat. I drove it today and pulled over to get some gas and once i crunk the vehicle up it sputtered out on me and shut off now it wont stay crunk up it keeps cutting off on me...

Tim, you may wish to go to a parts store and ask if they can pull one for you to measure. I think you are trying to get an adapter or pacer to cut the hose and then use hopes clamps to use it a while longer untill you can buy a new hose.

Theoretically yes, but it won't last long. Try the relay on the frame rail under the lower portion of the air cleaner.

if fan turns on and nothing is leaking try to find a thermometer and check the radiator in different areas sometimes they clog up and only a few vanes are open and not cooling it off properly.youll find cold spots the temp in different area should be the same +or - 10 degree one side to the other.

EIther fuse, relay, fan motor itself, temp sensor, or bad wiring

first MAKE SURE THE CAR IS COOL BEFORE TAKING OFF THE RADIATOR CAR!!!!!! failure to do this could result in major burns to the face!!! then check the radiator fluid make sure it is topped off also make sure that you arent just puttin water in the radiator make sure and put some actualcoolant the radiator should be filled with a 50/50 mix of water and coolant

if the problem continues you might want to take it to a shop

It is very likely that the thermostat is stuck closed. This will prevent the coolant from circulating through the radiator.

It is also possible that your radiator fan is not coming on.

If you need more help, post a comment and I will reply again.

The radiator cooling fan relay has most likely failed. It is underneath the air cleaner on the frame rail just behind the radiator. NO cooling fan = overheating. This is the first thing i would look at. Best way to tell is when the van gets hot see if the cooling fan is on. You will hear it running if it is coming on. It will set a code for the cooling fan relay also.

I don't believe your particular vehicle's cooling system needs to be bled during coolant filling, but check the coolant level first. It seems that the coolant level is too low for the sensors to be able to sense the temperature, or the sensors are disconnected. Look for a connector on the intake manifold, near the coolant outlet. Ensure it is properly connected.
