start with the basics...check coolant level. Check if the fan comes on when the car is fully warmed up. Check under the car for a leak in the radiator hose. You have to find the problem before changing out parts. If the exhaust looks like steam is coming out it could be a blown head gasket. To check that, pull dipstick and look at the oil on the stick. If it looks like tan colored mud, then you have oil mixing with coolant, which is usually a blown head gasket. I'll bet your fan isn't working though,
