<div>I have to agree with the engine flushing as some suggest. As Ron has done remove freeze plugs to the extent you can and be aggressive in the flushing. Pressure washer, water hose, chemcals, etc. Do it all. Clear those small passages as best you can.<br>

<div>I agree with that point. When I had my engine out of the car and
striped to rebuild it I opened up the expansion plugs and used a high pressure
hose to wash out the water channels. There was about 2 inches of mud like
crud at the bottom of the water jacket inside the block. It was shocking to see
what spilled out on my driveway. After the rebuild I haven’t had any
problems with over heating. Everything else on the car is standard except for an
after market plastic fan.</div>
