I would definitely check your thermostat first, sounds like it might be bad, However on the off chance it is the Radiator, like it was mentioned earlier Amazon is a great place to get a radiator. I just bought a radiator with the transmission cooler line attachments already in place from Amazon for only $130 with shipping...

Later...
