John, I had a slight overheating problem (engine was running hot...but not dangerously hot).
The following two simple steps helped fix it:
1) I had been running 10W-30 oil. I switched to 20W-50.
2) While in the process of removing my A/C, I found that the A/C condensor (which sits directly in front of the radiator) was dented and clogged with debris...this prevented adequate airflow through the radiator. For me, I removed the condensor completely, but maybe a new condensor is in order.
I hope these suggestions help out.
