Our car over hits and shuts off after so long. We have replaced the radiator, the radiator cap, and the thermostat. It still over hits and the hot water is not going into the radiator, if that is right. We think there is something clogging the hose or something else, we are just trying to figure out if it is something we can fix for a low cost.

like snownbird33 said, first you need to make sure the cooling system is burped. if all the air is'nt removed it will run hot.second make sure your cooling fans are operating, they useually want come on until it reaches around 227 degrees,or the a/c is turned on.third make sure the water pump is'nt leaking if it's a 3.1 liter or 3100 (same engine ) they are bad about the water pump leaking or the blades on the pump are corroded off or propellas are slipping on the shaft.
