Answer
Hi Chris:
does the electric cooling fan come on? if not try turning on the a/c if equipped and it still works after it's running for about a minute the electric fan should come on. If not I would look at the fuses and relays for the fan. With out a scan tool it's hard to say what's going on. you could have a bad computer, bad coolant temp sensor that reading cooler than what the engine is actually running at thus not telling the computer to turn on the fan. You could have an angine mechanical issue like a bad head gasket. It's hard to say but these are a few things to look at. Good luck :}
