     I would completely agree with Bill on this one. I had a GTV-6 that 
     would routinely overhaet while sitting in the ubiquitous Dallas 
     traffic in the summer where temps will routinely exceed 100 F.
     I tried everything I could think of to get the temp. to stay normal  
     including new thermostats, water wetter etc. It was only after I 
     pulled the rad and had it rodded out that the problem completely 
     disappeared. You'd be surprised how cruded up your radiator can get 
     over the years.
