ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    Check for proper air flow,,,,,Look for obstruction, bent fins, missing fins and/or corroded fins on your radiator.

    Maybe,,,, your radiator is partially clogged.

    Make sure your radiator fan is in good shape, up to speed, along with the condition of the shroud.

    During idle, the engine is not producing as much heat as your are at highway speed. So, it is not overheating with compromised cooling system. While at highway speed, there's enough air flow to keep temp under control. As you get off from highway to a street, there's residual heat inside the engine bay and not enough either air flow or coolant flow, that your engine is overheating

    This is my best guess at the moment.
    so you thinking that it could be my radiator yea because it stays cool while idling but let say after a 9 mile ride at 55 miles a hour with the fans on it over heats
