95 ford explorer overheating

Asked by Fordexploder95 Nov 02, 2020 at 01:22 PM about the 1995 Ford Explorer 4 Dr Limited SUV

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 95 ford explorer 4.0l that has a over
heating issue... i have replaced EVERYTHING and
cant figure out why its still doing this... i replaced
the coolant and thermostat first, then replaced the
waterpump, fan clutch, and fan blade, then i
replaced the temperature sensor and the cluster
and it is still happening!!! Its a 95 so i cant get a
temp reading on my scanner while driving at this
point im not even sure its actually getting hot but
the gauge while driving will go all the way to hot
and it will illuminate the check gauge light, but
when i let off the gas the temp goes back down to
normal... please help... please

Is coolant circulating through the engine? There could be a blockage. Let the engine warm up and see if the heater blows hot air. Is the AC clutch engaged and turning at all times, even with ac off?

Engine temperature sensors or failing fuel injectors. I just changed out my injectors , problem was solved.
