wierd problem.......please help
ok.
so here it is. I was on the long road trip home(about 4 hour drive) and my car was getting high temp reading. turned on the heat and the temp dropped down. so okay, sounds like a themostat. So i found the local auto parts store and changed it out in the parking lot. I let it idle, i drove it around, went through the drive thru at the Mcd's and idled while I ate. it was good. got back on the interstate and it started getting hot again! when I am in town, its fine, i can idle for a half hour with the AC on and its fine, but the intersate is a no go, ANYONE ever heard of this or know what it could be?
I don't think it's a head gasket, no oil in coolent/coolent in oil.
help!
