[QUOTE="haymaker, post: 133287, member: 22924"] Slipping belt is a common issue especially with an older machine. The side air vent area having an obstruction is also common. It does not take much slippage or restriction of air flow to cause you to run hot, if you have a combination of both, well I'm' sure you get it. The thermostat on an older machine is also a good point, as foton said. Rust and debris in radiator is not good. Poor lubrication from old tired antifreeze is a common reason for water pump failures. Seems to be one of the most neglected PM items. I hope it is a simple fix. Not fun changing out the pater pump. [/QUOTE]
