No leaks in head gasket. No oil or milky stuff in the coolant. Just had a valve adjustment. Also its not over heating just running hot. It dosent go past the top white line just close to it

My factory gauge will go up to red line climbing mountains. I installed an aftermarket mechanical gauge it reads around 200 degrees while climbing. These factory gauges are a little lacking, IMHO.

Hows the conditon of the radiator? They get dirty and need a good cleaning or replacing. The Preston kit wont clean it, it has to be done with a power flusher at a raditaor shop.

How is your spark plugs looking? Any oil burning?
