overheating???

Make sure your radiator isnt clogged. With the truck up to temperature use your hand to feel the air coming across the radiator....Dont get hit by the fan!. You should feel warm-hot air being blown by the fan. If the fan clutch is just free spinning you might not be getting enough air to cool the radiator.

all the above is about all i could think of as i was reading.

good luck and keep us posted on progress in solving this issue

On that note, the new gasket only covers the perimetor of the water pump. Bit the entire thing. How much did you put on?

i covered only what the gasket covered

ill try that in the morning,also it seems that when the truck starts getting warm the water in the radiator stops moving
