Richard ;
        I see this is a 2.1L up grade. Was the oil-to-water heat
exchanger retained? Often it is not. Has the water pump been checked? If
it's pulley has any axial play(in and out) the fins are probably worn
down hence reducing the amount of volume it can move. Maybe one or
combination of both is causing your overheating problem. What part of the
country are you?

Good Luck and Drive Safely
