overheating while setting in traffic 200 1987

posted by  someone claiming to be frankford on  Mon Apr 25 03:57 CST 2005 [RELATED]

I bought the car two weeks ago, I put a new radiator in it. Since I was driving 1300 miles starting the next day I thought I would throw in a bottle of the Wetter cooler? its the same stuff IPD sells. Annywho I put distilled water and the wetter in. One the trip I noticed that if wind was hitting the radiator the temp guage would dip down to almost the 7 oclock possition.

Anywho Saturday I took my nephew to the nascar race and we had to set in traffic for two hours and I noticed it would heat up in gear but not in neutral. Any thoughts what might be causing this? I bought a electric fan to throw on this afternoon. Thanks in advance
