Instead of fixing it for him, I'm making him go through the embarrassment of asking questions on forums and figuring out things for himself.

while your car is on, i.e. when its overheating, grab the upper radiator hose. if it is as hot as a mofo your tstat is opening, if its not that warm, then it has failed and is stuck closed.

or you could spend 8 dollars and replace it yourself and know that it's not the problem

throw the thermostat in a pot of water with a candy thermometer in the pot. when it pops open hope its between 160 and 215

Your thermo is getting stuck only partially open. ---- like this happens at the start of winter. Take it out, get a low temp from Advance, throw it in, call it a day.

Nevar. I want him to learn how to pander to the internet for help, get ridiculed, then find enough energy to research the answer on his own.
