~~~~~~ Intermittently sticking thermostat. Replace it. Also, make sure your 
system is well "burped". Also, the AUXILIARY FAN in front of the radiator has 
a pre-reisistor and relay that operates it. These must be working properly 
and have clean contacts or your AUX FAN will not come on- and you will 
overheat.
