What does the radiator look like?

What does the coolant look like?

How old is the water pump?

When was the last time the thermostat was changed?

Are the fans kicking on?

Are you running the AC when it overheats?

Does the secondary fan cut on when you turn the AC on?

we need more input....

if its overheating really fast. id look at the t-stat first, then make sure the radiator isnt clogged.u can check it w/ heat gun. or put ur hand on the radiator and see if its hot neer the top and cold near the bottom.or the other way around. but like what mr.formula said, we need more info.
