Thanks Guys!!!!!! I also found out that the Fan Clutch is no good. This is the reason it overheats. Fan Clutch spins freely when turned by hand!!!!!!

Primo:

I just replaced my fan clutch because it was starting to wobble just a bit at 69K+.

Are you going to replace it yourself? If so, I found a good place online to get the oem unit for a good price.

Roughly $80 shipped to my door.

If you want to get really fancy, you could rig up a nice, high output electric fan. Might gain 1 MPG and a slight increase in power at low RPMs and around town.
