engine overtemp and coolant loss

Topic starter

Replaced Thermostat, replaced water pump, replaced radiator cap… temp rises (mostly on small inclines) and drops on gage. Will lose a very small amount of coolant from the reservoir after temp rises. Any help or suggestions appreciated.

What led you to replacing those parts, did it overheat?

Was it losing coolant before, and did you see it coming from the water pump?

Does it overheat just sitting at idle or in slow traffic?

Are you having to add coolant to it?

Have you checked for a clogged radiator? Are cooling fans working?
