Overheating

Asked by kkcole1132 Nov 23, 2018 at 01:25 PM about the 1999 Mitsubishi Montero Sport 4 Dr LS SUV

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My SUV it will crank fine and it runs
good. It will run hot after it has been
driven over 20 miles. It never shows
hot on the dash. It shows half way. I
flushed the radiator in it but that did
not help. I see when I stop water on
the ground and I believe its  coming
from the overflow. What could it be?

Try bleeding air from system like this remove cap from overflow tank fill with antifreeze to full mark leave cap off and start vehicle and let idle you will notice level in tank start to rise this is normal once thermostat starts to open level in tank will drop add more antifreeze to full mark then put cap back on.
