When i im hauling or get on it hard a couple of times the temp gauge starts to rise. After that I could be sitting at a stop light and the temp will start to rise. I have changed the water pump and the thermostat and it doesnt look to me that the radiator isnt leaking and it didnt do it before i started to put stuff on it. If you can help me out please let me know what i can do about it. Thanks

 

Pull your radiator out and clean out the fins in front of the fan. The fan will suck dirt into the radiator. I pull mine out about every three years and you would not believe how much dirt was in the fins. There was very little opening in front of the fan. Also have a radiator shop clean your radiator out with with air and water.

 

how hot is it getting? The temp gauge will fluctuate its normal.

 

Sounds more like your fan clutch is not working..... I believe the fan clutch stat is suppose to lock up at about 208*..
