That usta happen to me in my daily driver cavalier... What was really odd was, I'd pull to the side of the road and put it in park, and the temp seemed to drop... Sometimes I'd hafta to shut it down and restart it, and that seemed to (temporarily) fix the overheating...
I replaced the radiator, hoses, and t-stat...
I'm sorry, but I dont think you wanna know how my story ended

Describe what you mean by overheats....
The coolant temperature runs up to XXX degrees?
The rad boils over?
C4's run hot, what we think is normal, you may think is overheating....
